Five Brasenose crews took to the water for this years’ Summer Eights bumps competition last week. For many this was their first set of bumps races, after Torpids 2024 was cancelled due to the weather earlier this year. For the thrilling format, BNCBC was pleased to enter three women’s boats and two men’s boats.
