Menai Straits 15 RIBS over 100 people
Great run on the Menai Straits today, awful weather at first but got better later on. Scary face on the poor girl in the chip shop at Beaumaris "105 portions of fish and chips please"

I love the fact that some of the (I assume?) divers are wearing BCDs as lifejackets! Not sure the RYA or PADI/BSAC teach that one!
