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

[Kona2]

Dave H - thanks for the extra info on NZ! We do get some free time in the Wanaka area, so will try for the excursion. I'm counting on altitude training advantage - and the fact that the tour company will slog us up the hill if we don't feel like tackling it! While it is possible to get out and ride on some days here, we have had some serious winds and a lot of grit on the roads.

Dan C, while you were procrastinating, and engaged in a deep discussion on the merits of various models of Tag Deflectors, you left your guard down and guess what...


Your It!!

David H,

While I gave you the rubber-glue defense I did log a HM today so I guess I get to make the next tag.

OK guess who gets the tag! Yep you're right Will S your it.

I would have tagged you but I figure you have a full plate getting ready for the trip of a life time to Kiwi country. And a deserved break it is. Your work on behalf of us knuckle draggers has been truly magnificent!!!

Enjoy!

Dan C

[Kristine Strasburger]

Wow, the team has been achieving some great milestones the past few days. Way to go, Angelo! And a big welcome to the team to all our newest mates.

[Kona2]

Welcome back to the JVC team Noelle! And welcome to the JVC team Andrea S!

Wowzer! Those Rowpros are trying to draft off of us! Small meter distance separates us - and everyone is pulling amazing meters! Go team go!

[just27]

Happy Birthday, AJ ! Wishing you good health, good rowing and much happiness !

Was it also a happy birthday for Kiba? I just noticed that she's old enough to drink now (in the US). Kiba ... anime art?

Dan C

Thank goodness for that Dan, I was simply amazed at the effectiveness of your low-tech approach... I thought I may have ended up being "it" for the rest of the JVC. Has made me think twice about engaging any other inter-stellar rivals without first checking for the old R-G defense! In future I think I will have to set up the "No-Returns" policy in advance of any engagements!

Cheers,
Dave

Sounds like you have it all under control there Jan.
It is such a nice country - and for an Aussie to say that about NZ is enough to get me deported! (They have T-shirts all around the place that read "we support 2 teams in NZ - the All-Blacks, and whoever is playing Australia!")

Rgds,
Dave

edit... looking like a lot like post hog here... no more tonight I promise (time to go and row!)

Congratulations to Darryl for breaking the 10,000 meter daily average barrier!

Great erging, sir!

Congratulations to Darryl for breaking the 10,000 meter daily average barrier!

Great erging, sir!

Indeed ... congrats, Darryl! I'd never noticed that you could sort by average meters for team ... and here's Darryl with 10,027 ... sweet!

[acrewer]

Season meters as of 261/365 = 49,762,095 m
Total meters on the day = 366,498 m

According to the above information, it seems that we are about to cross the 50,000,000 m barrier! Great Erging!

Counting today there are 90 days until April 15th, my work begins...
Just to keep it interesting, I've been known to do intervals of 1099, 1040, 1041, 1065, 1120, etc. whatever returns I'm working on that day.

Now I'm working on getting 1099's out for my clients.

Gina,

Aren't you glad the forms are four digits, not five?
