Great rowin' hosers.<br />I haven't been able to find a rowing machine and I am now up in the mountains. No rowing machine here, but a well stocked hot tub, fairly good snow, and a nice holiday with the family. We are up at <a href="http://www.skibanff.com/" target="_blank">Sunshine</a> for a few da...

Well, I am out on the road again team. This time it is for pleasure. <br />Our rowbot looks like he is doing his job and keeping the google earth file and stats up to date without any intervention.<br />I am going to see if I can go and find a row machine and enter some kliks while I am on holidays....

Yeah, really nice to see you in the boat Kirk.<br /><br />Sorry to hear about your back, John. Patience is the key. Stay away from the orthopods.<br /><br />I haven't done a 2k since way back in September, I will see if I can shave a few seconds off of my time.<br /><br />I have finally managed to u...

Great rowin' hosers!<br /><br />We had a record day of 200,012 meters on March 1, 2006. The records are only accurate after Feb 13, when we started tracking them completely automatically. They are also dependent on when people enter their meters in their log books, but regardless, congrats on the re...

<br /><br />We use one at work. The staff loves it at this time of year. <br /><br />Fire up the light box and gather around for a few minutes. Must be like gathering around the fire in the old days.<br /><br />Jim

Great rowin', hosers.<br /><br />We have turned the corner at <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dakar" target="_blank">Dakar</a> and we are now on our way to Cairo. This will be a long slog across the Sahara. <br /><br />These dudes in the Paris-Dakar rally may get a little confused when they se...

Thanx for the kudo's, hosers. I may try and shave off another .1 or .2 over the next few days, but I don't know how likely that will be.<br /><br />We have now rowed over 10% of the way around the world! It is less than 50 million meters before we end at the concept2 website. We can only do this one...

Great rowin', hosers. We are now more than 10% of the way around the world.<br /><br /> That big circular thing we rowed passed in Mauritania is <a href="http://www.thunderbolts.info/tpod/2005/arch05/050407richat.htm" target="_blank">the Richat crater</a>. It is apparently erosion from an old volcan...

<br />Nice pull on the 300 meters Kirk. You are inspiring me to get out and tug on that chain harder - maybe later on today.<br /><br />We are slowly inching our way across the Western Sahara. Once we hit Dakar we will turn east and essentially travel all the way back across the Sahara and Africa to...
