Tyne Amateur Rowing Club sits on the River Tyne at Newburn, about 7 miles west of Newcastle city centre. We have the longest and arguably best stretch of river for rowing in the north of England. And we have a new clubhouse with excellent indoor facilities. See our Welcome page for more details.
Not the Tyne LDS time trial ran on 10 October
It should have been Tyne LDS on Saturday 10 October, but it was cancelled because of Covid. We had to make do with a small(ish) private match time trial, with races for 49 crews in Div 1 and 17 in Div 2.
Results with Masters adjusted times - here as pdf and xlsx.
Wind was not as bad as forecast and there was only one little rainy squall in the early afternoon. But tough in Div 2 because of a head wind, outgoing tide and top water!
