Anker Valley

The weather has been better at Anker Valley in the past, but there was still a good entry from Nottingham juniors and veterans, despite a reminder that summer has not quite arrived. Tadek, Zyggy and Ozzie managed 1 st, 2nd & 3rd in their Lightning races to start the day.

In the second set of races, Heather, Craig & Shobhanaa did the Div 7 K1

While Ricky did Div 9 K1 & Beth did Div 8 K1. Congratulations go to Craig on promotion to Div 6 where he will have the delights of an 8 mile race and portages in the future. He may even get to race Geordie, who did the Div 7 K2 race with Kath this time.

Leanna did her first ever Hasler race with Sarah in Div 8 K2.
In the longer events, Marysh and Alison raced Div 4/5/6 K2 and Mick did Div 5.

Despite the cold wind, Anker Valley once again proved to be a warm and generous host club and the Lightnings in particular had good results and were delighted with their tee-shirts.

Photos thanks to Mick, Rosie & Sarah.
