Peterborough City's Alasdair blew the opposition away on the River Thames
Peterborough City rower Alasdair Ryder swept the opposition away at the Twickenham Regatta over the weekend.
Ryder took part in the Men’s Masters D/E Single Sculls race over a fast-paced 850m sprint course on the River Thames and won by a massive four-and-a-half lengths.
There was also a brilliant showing in the Men’s Open Double Sculls, where Tom Calver and Oliver Barber fought their way through the knockout heats to book a place in the final.
In a fierce, seat-for-seat battle, the duo pushed hard all the way to the line, finishing a courageous second after being edged out by just one-and-a-half lengths.
