Farmoor Speed Challenge

Dan Simpson has registered an incredible run of over 39 MPH on the flat water of Farmoor 1 in a south westerly gale ! Who will be the first to break the magic 40 MPH barrier ?  In order to maintain interest we have introduced age categories for three annual trophies as follows: Junior ( up to 18 years of age ) Senior ( 18-49 ) and Mature ( 50 plus ).  To enter your GPS recorded speed (witnessed by an OSC member ) record the details specified in the A5 black book located in the white cupboard beneath the signing on shelf in the hallway.
