It's been a busy few weeks with regattas.

First off was the London Hong Kong Festival. A group of Vikings joind up with Thames Paddlers and achieved second place in the final of the Professional category.

A week later was the Carlow regatta and our first experience of 500m races. Vikings again qualified for the final against the usual foes of Carlow and Kendra. Vikings took second place in the final on what was an energy sapping day of warm weather paddling.

Well done to both crews!
