LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.

[just27]

Thanks, for all the atta-girls! These milestones are crazy motivational, and our team support really rocks. I'm now looking forward to earning a few dollars during the Holiday Challenge, and to freeing a reindeer ... and, am still waiting anxiously to hear that I was the lucky winner of one of 20 teeshirts in the 40-4-40 challenge!

Lunies have been pounding the erg "pavement" today, and racking up the reindeer meters! Dasher is alone in the woods no more, as Dancer and Prancer have now been claimed! Congratulations to David A and Danno on earning enough meters to get the Concept2 donation and free up their reindeer!




Dancer (David A)





Prancer (Danno)


Wondered what a caribou (aka reindeer) sounded like.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOrw_5IiNxg

More hoofbeats and reindeer snorts and chuffs in the Lunaverse as Tombeur claims Vixen!

You're biking to San Diego from Phoenix, David? That's either some seriously impressive pedal power, or you've discovered a worm hole to jump those 350 miles.

Safe holidays and happy visiting to everyone who's going somewhere, in December. Keep an eye out for our Lunie reindeer ... there will be flashing lights and bells, real soon. Have fun with the grands, Danno!

And this from the gal who throws hashtags out like crazy....I don't think there was a timeline on reading OR on throwing down a palindrome here and there....

[Kona2]

Well Dasher sure didn't wait too long to get the light set! Good going, Ed !



Dasher (Ed)

[Kona2]

Whooooosh! That's the sound of you and your erg flying through ANOTHER month! You're doing great!



A whole herd of Lunies is within an antler's length of claiming a reindeer...we're going to run through the classic 8 reindeer names pretty quickly in the next few days. Good stuff. The Concept2 universe is getting closer to its first $1000 of the $30,000 earmarked for donation. So keep going going going - you're getting extra meterage out of your meters at this time of year. You're advancing the dial on your own meter piggy bank AND helping earn a contribution to some worthy causes.
