Since last fortnight, interest in a possible future rowing competition over a longer distance than the usual 2,000 metres has hotted up quicker than a hot thing doing a very hot activity on a hot day [Note to self: buy new book of metaphors]. As well as a Neil Rhodes organised competition to be possibly held in December, there's also now the idea of another competition in Grimsby as well. For more information and to register your interest, either contact Neil on [email protected] or join in on the conversation on the Indoor Rowing Message Board (http://www.therowingcompany.com/messageboard.htm) - you can find the relevant thread in the News section.
