    @indigostiff this is really cool to ready. When I do make it to the gym, the rowing machine is always a part of my workout. My wife was just talking about getting one for our home. Thanks for posting man! May have just been the inspiration I needed to take the next steps toward row master!

    In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

          I love this!
          You're a splendid writer and an inspiration! Somehow I needed to read your words in order to push myself out of the comfort zone I find myself in - which does actually not feel comfortable at all.

          Here's to the next 50 million metres!

          Glad I found this forum!

            Well done to keep this going! My family would kill me with the noise these things make (upstairs room open to the rest of the house), but I was close to buying one of the wooden rowers with the water thingy on account of less noise and frankly not quite as hideous optics. Will re-consider for next winter to replace my zwift setup.

              You’re an inspiration @indigostiff! What a commitment—I’m sure this is one addiction that will only serve you well.

                Interesting. Admirable consistency. What's your longest streak of rowing everyday?
                Any thoughts of getting on a boat?

                  @Nik 30+ days every day, but usually broken by weekends. No real interest in a scull yet, but maybe some day to get a bit more social, etc. Travel time is a negative plus maintenance in having a scull -- but the carbon ones are beautiful!

                    @indigostiff your post pushed me over the edge 🙂

                      @Tobi that’s a beauty! Just make sure you keep up with the water treatment, and it looks like you have addressed the performance monitor. Now row away!
