Yeah, the value of doing all the pieces early in the season. First time I've ever done that.

I'm sure it won't last long though. The best I've ever done was 7th at year end, and that was over two decades ago. In recent years I've been finishing anywhere from 12th to 70th. It looks nice for now though.

I had to do the challenge early this month as it has a very local flavour. It has been chosen by a new Aussie based team.
The "Three Sisters" is an extraordinary geological formation in the Blue Mountains National Park about 90 minutes by car west of Sydney - the largest city in Australia and my hometown. They are a group of three sandstone monoliths carved by natural weathering over millennia. Well worth a visit.
The local Aboriginal people have a long-standing story about their origins and significance which is explained at the CTC site.

Did them @2:05 under control to finish.

Yes Lindsay been there, for you definitely local
I've been out for a while strained a knee ligament in build up for WIRC back in Feb have managed some really slow attempts but have been doing ski erg. Recently managed 17.8 for 100m but have also been doing up to 3000m
Has ff got a ski erg team at least I could join in and post something

Cheers

Just read the ctc rules has to be a row erg

[allanhallberg]

Eased into the challenge this month so will have another couple of attempts to get it right started with an 18.5 and finished with a 17.3. The knee came thru it reasonably well so happy with that

[allanhallberg]

That's it for me 17.3 /17. 2/17.3/17.2/17.2 /17.3/17.1

NO i think you can join the ski erg team as well, i've done that before

Calling all lightweights!

I am guessing that this months CTC isn't that appealing to you (me neither) - but we have 3 boats just waiting for a lightweight rower to get them off the dock.

You still have a couple of weeks to give this one a try.

I will probably be offline for the next couple of weeks - but maybe when I come back those boats will be floating

Think bigger!

Calling all not-very-heavy heavyweights!

You still have a couple of weeks to make weight and give this one a try!

Apologies. I've been babying my left leg since straining/tearing the calf or Achilles in late June, so haven't dared go 100% just yet. Also, I'm facing OTW races both Saturday and Sunday this coming weekend. Once past the races I'll post a lightweight score to get a 'bum on seat.'
