What a glorious sight ... a racing crew. First crew disappears under Chiswick Bridge ... a heart felt thank you to the umpires, volunteers and clubs that have supported this years race.

Pairs Head, the most enjoyable Tideway Head race, organised by Barnes Bridge Ladies Rowing Club
- Can’t quite believe it...we are GO. Have a great race everyone.
- Latest footage from what would have been the marshalling area. Pretty grim.
00:00 - Overwhelmed by the messages of support.🙏🏼 It wasn’t an easy decision. We want to donate the food we have bought to feed the organisers. Any suggestions? We have fresh food so needs to be a local charity/meals service.
- THANK YOU very much indeed to everyone who raced today, and more importantly all of the amazing volunteers who made it possible. It takes about 100 people to run the race, we couldn’t do it without you #PairsHead
- THE RACE IS ON - Following a course inspection and in particular a review of conditions at the island it is considered to be safe. However further inspections will be made as tide continues to turn.
- We are pleased to announce Entries for the Pairs Head will be open on Saturday 19th September. Due to COVID-19 & the Bridge issue It will be a much smaller event this year. We will miss our visiting crews, however we hope to be back to normal in 2021 bblrc.co.uk/pairshead/
- GOOD NEWS: We now have sufficient drivers and launches to run the race. Thank you very much to everyone who has stepped up to lend us a launch or offered to drive.
- Sadly the Committee has made the decision to **cancel** the race due to the weather forecast tomorrow. We will be in touch with admins regarding refunds. Future races: 2022 Sunday 2nd October 09:30 2023 Sunday 8th October 11:00
