Jock River Canoe RaceFor one weekend each spring, the popular Annual Jock River Canoe Race is held between Munster Road and the town of Richmond, covering {{convert|12.5|km|mi}} of the river mostly through the Richmond Fen. The race, held since 1985, has grown to include now many classes of competition, such as solo and tandem canoeing and kayaking, recreational, mixed, and family.
