I saw Mike last night.
He told me that he has sent out all the bibs that have been applied for.

Just spoken to Mike Carter. I will be picking up my vets bib from him in the next week or so.
I’ll be at HPP on 21-Mar so can bring bibs up with me. Please send paperwork to Mike before then if you want me to bring yours.
I’m also at Lee Valley 9,15,16-Feb

Anyone have any info on a bib supplier? Lom don't seem to have any

I have some polo friends interested in the lycra bibs

Thanks for all the comments - very helpful. I added in some & it still fits on one sheet: • Thanks for judging. We can't run the competition without you • Has anyone not judged before? • If you would like someone to sit with you or explain anything just ask • & ask on the headsets if you have a ques...

Thanks Jim W & Niciss; Sportscover direct very good. £33 for 12 days top up insurance grade 4 & below
BC recommended Towergate & Sutcliffe who were both more expensive & much harder to deal with

Anyone got up to date experience on this subject? I need to arrange cover for ECA races in June
I asked Boswell and was referred to British Canoeing who referred me to Towergate or Sutcliffe... so I've sent them both emails
Interested to know others' experience

The closing date for this race is a little over a week away. Obviously the division 1 entry is over subscribed, but we could do with some more division 2 entries. This is an opportunity for division 2 paddlers to race on Holme Pierrepont. This cannot normally be achieved due to the high cost of hir...
