At last it’s go! West Riding SC’s Northern Brass Monkey Series will be getting out of the starting blocks this Sunday 16th January as the last remaining lumps of ice are devoured by this week’s relentless thaw. The forecast is making up for lost time with a balmy 10 degrees C and a scorching 20-knot south westerly. The water will still be cold, so no need to put your shortie in the kit bag.
