TIDE High Tide is at 0731, so the water should have subsided and the half lock shut by the time the race starts, so the only flow paddlers will need to think about is the flow from the rain / surface run off.
Directions from Richmond: follow road signs to Petersham/Kingston then brown signs for Ham House to car park. For Satnav use post code TW10 7RS. This will take you to the Ham House stables; carry straight on for the race parking.
Parking parking will be available on the Ham Riverside Pitches, adjacent to the Ham Street Car Park. Access is controlled by lockable barriers, which will be locked at 15:30 so all cars must have vacated the area by this time. Please do not park in the main car park, as this is for use by visitors to Ham House.
Food & Drink
Bacon Rolls will be available in the morning and wraps after the racing provided by outside caters, as well as teas and coffees and cakes provided by Richmond Canoe Club. Please note there is no cash point or card facilities so don’t forget to bring cash!
Facilities Portable toilets will be available on site. There are no showers or changing facilities available. Competitors may use the facilities at the clubhouse, which is a 15 minute walk from the race site.
