Question - 203

The visuals at the top show the start and end points respectively. The picture at the bottom shows the competing teams. What event am I referring to?

Answer: It is the Oxbridge boat race. Some of you went for the Harvard-Yale race. This is possibly the oldest college rivalry of any kind. Anshul, Rajeev, Shweta, Adithya, passer by, Srivats, Iam, Mekie, Vetti, Rajesh K, Vijay, Schmetterling, Keshav, Rajesh and Swapnaa got this. Well done.

My original guess was "Harvard v Yale", But googling proved my second guess of "Oxford v Cambridge rowing race" to be true.
Start is Putney bridge and end is Chiswick Bridge
