May Bumps 2000

The May Bumps 2000 were a set of rowing races held at Cambridge University from Wednesday June 14, 2000 until Saturday June 17, 2000. The event was run as a bumps race and is one of a series of May Bumps which have been held annually in mid-June since 1887. See May Bumps for the format of the races. In 2000, a total of 172 crews took part (103 men's crews and 69 women's crews), with around 1500 participants in total. Several thousand spectators came to watch, particularly on the Saturday.

Head of the River crews

Caius men rowed-over in 1st position, achieving the headship for the 3rd consecutive year.

This is the first year in bumps history that the same club finished Head of the River in both the men's and women's events.
