All the GB teams except the Senior Mixed took to the water at Racice, Prague on Monday in preparation for the start of racing on Wednesday. The 2000m race course was bathed in glorious sunshine although a brisk cross breeze belied the burning capacity of the sun. A few red shoulders were less than welcome at the end of the day, more sun block required! The Under 18s completed their second day of training and have decided to take a rest day ahead of the 2000m on Wednesday. Both premier crews and the Senior Open will complete their preparations today (Tuesday) and the remaining members of the Senior Mixed will arrive at the site after their road trip. We wish all the crews well in their quest for medals, there's no such thing as luck and the hard work has been done over the last 2 years.
