Re: Summer Solstice - 21K challenge - strategy?

I've done this 2 times so far all in one sitting. First was 21k in 1:41 & second 21k in 1:39 I try to keep around a 2:20 pace.

Off-Road Motorcycle racing

I bought a C2 in January of 2016 and in 6 months I have rowed over 500K meters.
Last Sunday I race in a National Enduro race, 64 miles thru the woods in about 4 hrs.
I ended up winning my age class! The C2 rower works the same muscles as riding the bike.
Great cross-trainer!

Re: New Personal Best! Brag About That New Pb!

I've been rowing for two months now with a D model.
Did my best 10,000 in 45:19 today.
It sure gives this 51 yr old a good workout!

Boy's in the Boat

I just finished reading the book "Boy's in the Boat" by Daniel James Brown
1936 USA Olympic Rowing team. A great read!

Steve Hatch mounts MX bars to his C2 for cross training.

My Model D Serial Number

I just bought a slightly used BLACK Model D with a PM3.
Is the serial number stamped on the front support or frame or is it a sticker that may have fallen off?? I can not find the serial number.

The PM3 shows a serial number: 400323144 date code: 0852014
It only has 30,000 lifetime meters.
