Curious.... Oxford vs Cambridge Boat Race

As there are friends from all around the world, I just wondered if people from around the world knew what this was? Is this just something just shown on British tv, or is it shown elsewhere?

Is it only the rowing fraternity interested in this or anyone else too?

I am not a rower but still love rowing, both this race and Olympics and World Championships. I love the fact that they give absolutely everything in the race. They are super fit and pretty hot too!

Go Oxford!

    Boo! Come on Cambs!

    I was still interested before I started rowing, but more so now! It's nice to know what's going on! lol

    Apparently so!

    It was a good race, the better team won (which hurts me to say, lol) I thought Cambridge had a game plan as they looked really strong at the start and I was waiting for them to break away, but it just never happened. Ah well, there's always next year! lol

    For me it makes up for the disappointment last year. All three Oxford boats won (inc. Isis and Women's crews) so they must have really strong coaching team.
