Three members of the Wightlink sponsored Ryde Rowing Club Veterans Squad attended the Wallingford Long Distance Sculling last Saturday (2nd October). The race is held over a 4250m course from the Railway Bridge to the Oxford University Boat Club boat house at Wallingford Marina.

The event is of a very high standard with many international oarsman and women competing over the years including Steve Redgarve and James Cracknell. This year was no exception with a very high standard and over 400 crews and scullers competing.

Unfortunately one of the Ryde scullers – Russell Page – suffered a recurrence of a recent back injury and was forced to withdraw however Ian Hayden and Simon Saunders were able to compete, both in the Master B Single Sculls and both acquitted themselves well with Ian finishing in second place and Simon in 4th in their event. Ian Haydens time of 19 minutes and 14 seconds was less than two minutes behind the winning time. Simon completed the course in 21 minutes and 6 seconds.
