Yesterday Gavin and PW took part in the 1000m K2 event. It was always going to be a tall ask as there first international K2 event ever to pull something out the bag. As this being the olympic qualifications everyone from around the world came out firing. They made it through a difficult heat into semis where they were unfortunately knocked out. They raced a brave race and have alot to take home with the experience gained.
Today the K4 took to the water with another dreaded draw for there heats with many of the top international crews lining up along side them.
