Re: Nonathlon 2023/2024
Foul! Just noticed that they have reduced the 5k "Target time" in my category (54 Lwt) by 13S so while I had met my initial goal of 800 points on this earlier in the season, now I need to go 16S faster. Given how this is constructed, it is bound to effect age groups several years each sid...

Re: April CTC - The Baker's Dozen
With improved pacing after the trial run, I managed an improvement of 102m to 3106m @ 2:05.5
Happy with that.

Re: April CTC - The Baker's Dozen
Had a trial run at this and made 3004m @2:09.8 (2k pace -4)
First rep: 223m; final rep: 253m, so more even pacing may achieve an improvement.

XIX Australian Masters Games
It was an unprepossessing venue for the Indoor Rowing events held in a part of Adelaide railway station scheduled for renovation. We were shoehorned into a musty annexe with bad acoustics and plaster peeling off the ceiling. Unfortunately, the P.A. system wasn’t up to the job. Apart from these drawb...

Re: September CTC: The Rowing Maul
Near the base of the ladder there lies
A boat from which come some faint cries
Of earnest regret
That you’re not on board yet
So get cracking, it’s not too late guys

We have 17 rowers registered for this month but only one boat afloat. It would be wonderful if some of the ladies had a bash. Just to back you up on this, Jon: A non-floating boat is a bore Zero points make a very low score Ladies, give us a lift We’re not even adrift Please get us off this dismal ...

I’m so pleased that you want to take part
In this tough CTC

Raring to go from the start

Ladies, please help us to float

You don’t have to be quick
Your own pace you can pick
And you’ll add to the score line (please note)

Hoping to bring down today’s 2k SB to around 8:40 in small steps in preparation for the Australian Masters Games in October.

I think that the most appropriate advice to anyone in this position would be “caveat emptor”Now you just need to offer that service to anyone who needs a signature and hasn’t got one yet, and we are all sorted

Re: Signature image generator - bug tracking and information
Hi Jon
To solve the problem with the signature image generator, I’ve devised a workaround by making my own.
So, job done; no worries
All the best and many thanks for all the work you do “under the bonnet” in keeping the technical side of FS going.

Re: Signature image generator - bug tracking and information
In trying to generate a new signature image, I am getting the above error code. Can you help, or is the problem at my end?
I've tried both Firefox and Chrome with the same result.
Thanks in advance,
