Definitely. BTW, where are your two sons this season? They were racking up the meters between them in 07-08? (My son has yet to buy his new Concept 2 ... after giving AJ and me the machine he purchased last year ... I feel so bad. Not.)

Thanks.

Actually I only have 4. I should have 5 but I drop one and broke it. I would like to acquire a set of eight.

Well, I have given them the option to do a bike ride or a row every day, and they are choosing to bike. As long as they are doing something active I'm okay with it. We should start seeing them posting rowing meters again once the weather has turned too bad for biking. (Tim is 14 and Ben is 10.)

A real Luna has been added to the team

Post by nl07695 » July 10th, 2008, 9:59 pm

Hola Amigo's and Amiga's

We have a new team member. Based on the remark from Kristine my lovely wife made the decision to become a Luna-tic. And I can confirm she is a real one !! First her name is Lilia Luna and second.... if you ask me she is a bit loco too :wink: .... And that's exactly why I love her so much.

She was a bit embarrassed to join the boat since she is not rowing that much but all meters count and she is doing well.

She will introduce herself soon on the forum.

Hasta luego todos.
