    As an accompanying thread to the actual university racing as posted in the sports section, here's the crowd and competitors on dry land at Preston Marina as the north west universities battled it out this weekend.

    Mainly Fuji X2 Pro, some on the D7000 at 500mm and one - yikes - totally on auto (not mine):
