The final course inspection is complete and all is looking good for tomorrow.

Now, take these steps and have a great race:

• The public car park next to the check-in area is small and will fill up very quickly. No boat drop off will be allowed here.
• There is plenty of parking at Rivermead Leisure Centre car park 
• Paddlers/supporters should take the footpath from Rivermead to access the river and check-in.
• There is very limited tall vehicle parking near the entrance to the small car park. Once full tall vehicles will get redirected to an alternative site

4. Briefing 09:30

Finish Parking

You can still enter for Thameside 2 and check out the entries to date

Results will be updated during live here!

There is a good entry for Thameside 1 tomorrow, therefore we need to make extra effort to respect neighbours at the start, finish and along the course, representing our great sport in the best possible light.

In particular, please look at the schedule below and aim to limit time spent at both Aldermaston and at Reading Canoe Club (RCC).

Buoyancy aids

Buoyancy aids are strongly recommended for all and compulsory for juniors, as the river is quite high.

Schedule

The start window has been increased so slower boats should start earlier. We will run 2 briefings to accommodate people starting across the window.

The finish doesn’t open until 12:30 so if you finish before then you won’t get a time.

Parking 

Parking is limited so where possible please car share and remember to always park legally and considerately. This is very important to the future of this event.

Finish parking

• The Warren (road outside RCC)

The road is narrow so parking carefully is mandatory

We will cone off a passing area midway along the road. Please don’t block this space.

• Overflow parking (see map for directions)

• Albert Road, which is a short walk from the club
• Rivermead Leisure Centre, on the opposite bank to RCC, a canoe ferry will be in operation

Check-In Procedure

1. Get your race number from the club website
2. Tell your number to the check-in team, who will confirm your name 
3. Check-in team will give you a South Region number board to use. No other number boards are acceptable. 

So, remember to

• Bring & wear the appropriate kit
• Park legally and considerately
• Take your litter home

Thank you
