The May Bumps 2011 were a series of rowing races held in Cambridge with crews from the boat clubs of all Cambridge University Colleges, the University Medical and Veterinary Schools and Anglia Ruskin University from Wednesday 15 June 2011 until Saturday 18 June 2011. The races were run as a bumps race and have been held annually in mid-June in this form since 1887. See May Bumps for the format of the races. In 2011, 172 crews took part (103 men's crews and 69 women's crews), with nearly 1550 participants in total.

Head of the River crews

Caius men bumped up on Wednesday and Thursday, and rowed-over twice to reclaim the headship they lost to 1st & 3rd Trinity in 2008. They hold the double Headship after becoming the head boat in Lent Bumps 2011.

Downing women bumped Pembroke on the first day and then rowed over the next three days. They also now hold a double Headship from Lent Bumps 2011.

Highest 2nd VIIIs

Downing II gained the highest men's 2nd VIII from a falling 1st & 3rd Trinity II by bumping them on the final day.

Pembroke II remained the highest women's 2nd VIII despite falling to 20th due to bumps from Selwyn and Peterhouse.

Pegasus Cup and the Biggest Risers

Murray Edwards won the Pegasus cup for the first time. The club's two boats both won blades despite Murray Edwards III not gaining a place throughout the Getting-On-Race (see below).

Queens' IV rose an impressive 6 places, moving into Men's division 5, by bumping into the sandwich boat position on the final day before over-bumping on Addenbrooke's.[1]

Bumps Charts

Below are the bumps charts all 6 men's and all 4 women's divisions, with the men's event on the left and women's event on the right. The bumps chart represents the progress of every crew over all four days of the racing. To follow the progress of any particular crew, simply find the crew's name on the left side of the chart and follow the line to the end-of-the-week finishing position on the right of the chart.

Note that this chart may not be displayed correctly if you are using a large font size on your browser. A simple way to check is to see that the first horizontal bold line, marking the boundary between divisions, lies between positions 17 and 18. The combined Hughes Hall/Lucy Cavendish women's crews are listed as Lucy Cavendish only.

The Getting-on Race

The Getting-on Race (GoR) allows a number of crews which did not already have a place from last year's races to compete for the right to race this year. Up to ten crews are removed from the bottom of last year's finishing order, who must then race alongside new entrants to decide which crews gain a place (with one bumps place per 3 crews competing, subject to the maximum of 10 available places).

The 2011 May Bumps Getting-on Race took place on 10 June 2011.[2]
