Hey Gary, decided I needed to earn my donuts this morning and just did a 45.6 300 r53.<br /><br />Not bad for a half-century-old sack of flour....<br /><br />

Congrats to all the people that travelled to Boston. h*** look at the toll it took on Ranger's performance from a fortnight ago!<br /><br />Andreas is a paddler and a C2 racer, in the last year you have done more on-water racing apparently than C2 racing. IMO it's pointless to challenge someone who does not practice the specific discipline. It's like him challenging you to a kayak/canoe race, it doesn't mean anything and i'm sure your'e not that interested! Similarly as it doesn't prove anything if you beat him on the water rowing other than you can do just that!<br /><br />FB<br /> </td></tr></table><br /><br />Gary,<br />I know you weren't. I just thought it would be a great time to take a shot at Andreas.

Fierejeppen, sounds like a great sport. <br />For all of us who may not be able to travel to Holland, maybe we could do a virtual challenge in our living rooms! <br /><br />Dwayne: If Andreas accepts rowing OTW against you, would you accept:<br />- erging (live) aginst him<br />- paddling OTW against him (in Southafrica or elsewhere) ??<br />Think about it!<br /><br />Cheers
