Thanks for your welcome message! Very happy to be on the team; it seems like a fun group. We have only lived in Nanaimo for a short time - we moved down here from much further north. Yes, Nanaimo is the bathtub racing capital of the world, I think. They take their bath tubs (and their fun) very seriously here. Looking forward to getting muddy along with the rest of the Luna-Tics.

2 Million Meter Man!!!!

Post by Thor MW » March 4th, 2016, 6:27 pm

Our very own much loved Dan Wickwar just hit his 2 million season meters. Way to go man!
Just so you know, he's been sitting on the edge for a few days driving me nuts. He only needed 703M.

Keep on Rock'n baby!
The All Mighty Thor. hahaha

Thanks, Thor. Sorry for driving you crazy. Got sick right at the threshold of a million meter mark.
But it's kind of funny it bothered you more than me - you're too easy. :)
Now,as long as the Minions don't sneeze on me, I think I'm ready for a little cheer.


Congratulations danwho on reaching 2 MM this season !!!
We wish you many many more.

Just in case the Mud Season Madness challenge isn't enough madness for you,
you can now heap on The World Rowing Indoor Sprints. Do a 1000 meter race
between March 11 and 13, and enter your result.
As K2 would say, WHOOOSH.

Thanks for the welcome. Yes, we in Nanaimo love our "bath tub races"! But I'll stick with the Erg. As Thor MW told me, "You don't get lost on the Erg." And that's one blind rower to another. haha. I'm looking forward to learning and growing as a rower from all you experienced folk on this team. As they say, it's never to late to start something new.

I may be easy baby but I aint cheap!
Well there wasn’t a new winner posted yesterday for the Mud madness thang. There should have been unless it was a holiday in the muddy land of C2. Maybe the roads were too muddy. Hmm. I wait on pins and needles. Geeze, I guess I really am easy, eh Dan? I wanna see which of the Lunes gets some new underwear or whatever.

Rock on
Thor

Welcome to Fitter and Ween. Have a great time always and never stop rock'n. Be sure to take one break from the erg every day.
With love
