I don't, but if you do happen to find an archive, I'd certainly be interested. I rowed in the First ErgoMania in 1983, they did have some of those results in the Seattle PI, so perhaps a newspaper archive would be worth checking.

I checked the times and the PI online. The PI had a couple of comments about a couple of people that did really well. The times only has archives back to 1990 online (and in 1990 they said someone won with a time of 9:xx for 25,000 (the 25,000 is not my typo)).

The times also said that it was sponsored by LWRC in 1990. I wonder if they sponsored it in 1988 and 1989 and if they would still have results around somewhere if they did.

They might http://www.lakewashingtonrowing.com/, I was by their club a few weeks back, and they seemed well organized so might have old records in a file cabinet somewhere.

I see you're also in the Northwest, hopefully the snow has not been too bad for you. It made things quite interesting in Redmond last night.

My employer lets me work from home so I don't mind the snow.

Today, however, I rode my bike to work when it was 25 degrees out. That's a new PB.

It snowed a decent amount here in Federal Way. Still, like nothing I witnessed living in Eastern WA or on the East Coast. Of course it rained and all the white stuff went away. B)

About the Ergomania archives...I noticed that even the Crash B's don't have an extensive archive. Definitely couldn't find anything before 1990 for Ergomania, but plan on doing it this year. Good luck to you others who may be going for a try.

Edit: Forgot to add that Pocock Rowing Club would(should) have all results.
