After the loss to Salford last year,\nit was a worrying start. Following the Novice Women was the Novice Men\u2019s race\nwhere MUBC took a strong lead, taking the first win of the day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next was the singles. Salford won the women\u2019s single, whilst\nFelix Rummel took back the men\u2019s single title for MUBC. After four races MUBC\nand Salford were tied on points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The final races saw the senior squads battle it out. MUBC Senior\nWomen took an early convincing lead. The Senior Men\u2019s race was a lot tighter\nbut MUBC came out on top. The success of the senior squads gave MUBC the win\nwithout the need to carry out committee races. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Bridgewater cup Nemesis raced MUBC, with MUBC coming\nout on top. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"859\" data-src=\"http:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-1024x859.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2701 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-1024x859.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-300x252.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-768x644.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-1536x1289.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-2048x1719.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-1200x1007.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-1980x1662.jpg 1980w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/859;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"859\" src=\"http:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-1024x859.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2701\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-1024x859.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-300x252.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-768x644.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-1536x1289.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-2048x1719.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-1200x1007.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/mubc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0505-min-1980x1662.jpg 1980w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption>Bridgewater Cup: Nemesis BC Crew<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, it was a great day of racing in some excellent\nconditions.
