A great year for SECBC! Congratulations to the Men’s First VIII AND Men’s Second VIII in their earning of blades in the 2010 May Bumps. The Women’s First VIII were not able to advance up the field, but their form on the water was complimented by many senior rowers. With many of the crew in this year’s Dev Squad, we’re hopeful of a great campaign next year…

A message from the CU Quiz Soc:
I am the president of the Cambridge University Quiz Society and am currently organising our annual inter-collegiate quiz competition. All colleges can enter as many teams as they like, each consisting of 4 current members (undergrad, grad or fellow, or a mix) and the format and difficulty is exactly that of University Challenge.
This makes it a great opportunity for your college’s UC team to practice ahead of the auditions in May and, if you don’t have a team yet, find out who your best quizzers are, and maybe a Cambridge college could win the next series (for the first time since 1996). The competition is also a great opportunity to show Cambridge just what your college is made of and why the Tompkins Table may be talking out of its arse.
If you would like to submit a team, then just email me (sgs31) with a contact email for each captain. The quiz will take place in the evenings of the last 2 weeks of this term, with exact timings to be announced once we know how many matches we need to schedule. When you have your teams, please let me know by next Friday (26th) at the very latest.
Good luck, Simon
Hi Eddies,
After the Bicycle Doctors great success last year. We are looking forward to our second year. Our resources are still limited, but we accumulated tools and bike parts last year. Due to generous donations from leaving students, we had a couple of bikes that we sold on to freshers. The profits will be used to upgrade our tool collection. The college is providing us with more bikes and parts when the bike sheds will be cleaned.
During term time, the Bike Doctors are going to service and repair bikes for free in front of Norfolk Building on saturdays  between noon and 3.00 pm. If you are really in an urgency, contact one of the bike doctors, maybe we can help out on special appointment.
If people are interested in helping with tools, donations or their skills, they are more than welcome. If you have questions or you want to offer your help, please contact Glenn Harris or Tim Rademacher at ttr22@cam.ac.uk.
We are looking forward to seeing you,
the Bike Docs
