Dear Paddling Community, it is with sadness we share that due to the ongoing weather conditions and their impact on our waterways, we have to cancel our Thameside 1 race that was scheduled for Sunday, February 15th. Safety of all paddlers is the top priority and the current conditions do not allow for a safe race.

All entries will be notified with the Canoe Marathon Entries site and entry fees will be refunded via the system. We are hoping for a turn in the weather in time for our next race on the 1st of March that is currently planned as Thameside 2. Please check our website for the latest on that race at reading-canoe.org.uk/thameside-series/

If you have any questions about the races or the decision, please reach out to us at info@reading-canoe.org.uk

We will be missing racing this Sunday – if you feel similar and have any memories or photos to share about previous Thameside 1 races, please visit our Facebook page a leave a message for other paddlers at https://www.facebook.com/ReadingCanoeClub

Best regards, Reading Canoe Club
