Tyne Amateur Rowing Club sits on the River Tyne at Newburn, about 7 miles west of Newcastle city centre. We have the longest and arguably best stretch of river for rowing in the north of England. And we have a new clubhouse with excellent indoor facilities. See our Welcome page for more details
Excitement just along from the club on Monday (21 May) as a very large water main burst just at the north end of Newburn Bridge. It featured on BBC and ITV regional news that night. Workmen on site on Tuesday reckoned it might take 6 months to reopen! Maybe we should open a ferry service.
Congratulations to Claire and Vicky for winning in style the Women's Masters B/C/D pair at Tees Regatta on Saturday (19 May) - see video on Team Tyne Innovation site here. The other crews racing were Liz & Caroline in a double (bronze) and Colin in a single (silver). Lovely day! The TTI Atlantic Challenge boat with full crew was also there and much admired - pic here.
The two Learn to Row (L2R) courses at Tyne ARC, each lasting eight weeks, have started. One began on Sunday 29 April in the morning and the other on Wednesday 2 May in the evening. If you are a member of the club, your help to assist the new rowers over the next 6 or so weeks would be good - contact Colin Percy or go on to the Google Sheet here.
Tide times in British Summer Time for North Shields up to 3 June 2018 are shown below. Add 20 minutes for Newburn. You can download the Port of Tyne's 2018 tide tables as a pdf here (2mb) - note they are in GMT all year. See also our tides page and a useful tide times generator.
