@jameschappers @adamboultonTABB Don’t be ridiculous - that would require those invited to have an ounce of integrity.

@DrMichaelMosley Respect your work but loathe your partnership with the hate rag the Daily Mail. Can’t you find another more tolerant medium to spread a healthy eating / lifestyle message?

@IvyLeague @BrownMensCrew @BrownAthletics Congratulations Paul! Well deserved.

@shutteritch @matthewcpinsent @ShiplakeRowing @voiceofrowing @markxdavies @alastairadam @martcrossy @OutdoorDaveGB @BritishRowing @eamonglavin @row360 @ErgosZoom And all credit to Sir Matt for still engaging. Wish more in charge would. Spent 3 years as Chair of Fundraising for a state school rowing (sculling based) programme and had to answer these questions all the time. There’s still so much to learn about accessibility to the sport.

@matthewcpinsent @ShiplakeRowing @voiceofrowing @shutteritch @markxdavies @alastairadam @martcrossy @OutdoorDaveGB @BritishRowing @eamonglavin @row360 @ErgosZoom I think the point was about the general level of fees citing the 8 as being the most expensive. But they also referenced £2000 which would include their scullers. My point was that their and other’s rowers get a much better experience for the same fee than the scullers do.

@coastalrower99 @martcrossy Absolutely but regrettably, in the UK at least, the leadership shows no desire to do so.

@ICannot_Enough Hey James. The delivery number appears to be about half what you were projecting 2 years ago! Can you explain the huge shortfall?

[riverdad @river_dad]

@whyurn_ Well rowed! Day 4 beckons! 💪👍

@WBSBC @David__Osland Good to hear but too little too late for many. This type of thing is critical to inclusiveness and the relevance of the sport. Those in charge need to act accordingly. It was great to see that the new Junior Girls 8 is open to clubs. Now for gender parity!

[riverdad @river_dad]

@WBSBC @David__Osland But Henley Royal Regatta then exclude the clubs from competing in the junior boys 8 event - the Princess Elizabeth. Prejudice/privilege/tradition whatever you want to call it runs very deep.

@jamesbiggs99 @jackbeaumontt Did I tell you about the time I beat an Olympian? Story now needs to be revised to beating an Olympic Medallist. 😃

[riverdad @river_dad]

@jackbeaumontt Fantastic result Jack. So well deserved. 💪🦛

[riverdad @river_dad]

@ObeseManRowing Fantastic achievement. Congratulations.

@jonnysearle2 @the_inner_game @ErgosZoom Thank you both and of course @ErgosZoom for a really enjoyable workout. (Can’t quite believe I wrote enjoyable!).
