 want to get after it again, almost. I did throw down a 7:02 here at altitude last week on a bet with my training mate. Not bad considering 1000m at a time is the most I erg these days. Now the bike is another story,...
Ah crap! I was alerted by a friend that The pathological one was lying about me again. I will return all the medals I have won rowing on the water immediately (masters natioals included) since I apparently have never rowed on the water. Who knew? Sure felt like I was rowing on the water but then the...
Perhaps the wrong place for this but I thought here would get Nelson the notice he deserved. Nelson Boyd died this past weekend from cancer. I met Nelson the first time at the Mile High Sprints many, many years ago He did the hour row and then a couple of hours later sat on the erg next to mine and...
Let me clarify one more of the lingering unchallenged lies that I have read here. In both 2009 and 2010 on a day at the gym with my cycling team when the weather was too crappy to ride outside my mates asked me to show them how to row and race the erg. Basically on a dare I did a 2k with no regular...
Topic: Long time gone.
Been quite some time but thought I might sneak this in. While not quite the complete goal that Roy and I were working on (World Champion in two sports) we have both moved a bit closer. He won a National championship in Time trial and I just this weekend won one in the Team Pursuit (and set a new Nat...
  One, I have never spoken to you other than the obligatory congrat and good race. Two, I set the WR at EIRC not WIRC in a race where I fini...
Bakes, Nicely done. Couldn't wait to get home from my ride and check the results. It was one of those "Hot Damn" moments when I saw your name in the top three. Great effort. Nice report as well. You truly captured the sense of what its like to be there. I missed the atmosphere and the BSing with old...
Bakes, Well done. I remain covetous of one of those hand engraved ice scrapper deluxe trophies. Looks like a nice turn out and still time to see the Pats. As per usual and according to expectations a great job at the premier race north of Boston. You da man. take care, be safe. live well, live stron...

Hmmm don't knowthat I can add a lot here. Yes the team performed quite well, but in the age categories that were represented the competion was more than just thin. And with no absolute confirmation from C2 a lot of my observatins are not rooted in absolutes. But they didn't even find 6 women that co...BSRIA North creates new job role
Published: 02 October, 2018
The Building Services Research and Information Association has hired a new Technical Operations Manager for its Northern office.
Anthony Collier brings 14 years’ experience in a materials testing environment for the civil engineering highways sector.
Business Manager June Davis said the newly created role is “an essential step in BSRIA North’s continued development for its strategic direction it is taking for 2018 and beyond”.
Collier said: “I am looking forward to making my mark at BSRIA in this new role that will highlight the value BSRIA represents for the built environment sector at the time of profound change and challenge.
“My role will guarantee that BSRIA strengthens its position at the forefront of technical operations and such activities.
“It will also enhance BSRIA’s reputation of a reliable partner in delivering growth and improvement for BSRIA North members and, indeed, the wider construction industry stakeholders – both nationally and globally.”Self-taught, passionate about photography for more than 40 years, Raphaël BATTOIA learned photography with film by devoting his free time to it and with all his passion.
For fifteen years, with the arrival of digital, Raphaël BATTOIA has also evolved towards artistic creation but always from his own photos. Photos which are for him like clay for the sculptor, a raw material to be worked to extract the quintessence.
Meals are included in the clinic price and will be provided in one of our on-campus café’s. The first meal provided is Dinner on Friday and the final meal is Lunch on Saturday. If you have any food allergies, please notify the coaching staff so we can provide appropriate alternative options.
*** In light of the current pandemic, we will only be serving pre-packaged meals and will contact participants to receive orders ahead of arrival.
Our goal is to challenge each player to play in a way that is efficient and effective, while pursuing technical and tactical excellence that mirrors Gordon’s Standard of Play. Sessions will be constructed based on practice plans for the Gordon’s college team and coaches will help each player to refine the tools necessary for competition at the collegiate level. Ample time will be devoted to small-sided and 11v11 games.
In addition to our 3 training sessions, we will hold a 45-minute goalkeeper-specific training session led by Gordon’s goalkeeping coach. This session will focus on goalkeeper technique and execution based on the demands of the college game.
Certified, full-time athletic trainers and student trainers will provide immediate treatment to campers in need. Trained EMTs are available on campus and local hospitals are easily accessible if necessary. If your camper has a pre-existing medical condition, requires medication, or carries emergency medication such as an Epipen, please notify the camp director and/or the medical staff. If your camper carries an Epipen, you are required to submit a Permission to Administer Epipen Form which is included in the Camp Waiver Forms download.
In the event of inclement weather, we will do our best to utilize indoor space to continue training. However, because there are other activities in session at the same time we may be limited in our facility space, so it is possible that we will utilize film sessions and other activities until the weather passes.
Housing will be subject to current Gordon and Massachusetts state guidelines surround COVID. We plan to host players overnight in individual rooms (if you are traveling with a teammate, you are permitted to share a room).
Full refunds can be issued if we receive your cancellation request in writing (email) 14 days prior to the beginning of the ID Clinic. If you elect to cancel your registration after that point, we can offer you a 1-year camp credit for the following summer. Should the camp staff cancel the event to due COVID-19 reasons a full refund will be issued to each registrant. Please contact the camp director to request a refund.!– Request: liftshare/trip-authentication-success-wolseley-warwick-technology-park –> <!– Matched Rewrite Rule: (.+?)/([^/]+)(?:/([0-9]+))?/?$ –> <!– Matched Rewrite Query: category_name=liftshare&name=trip-authentication-success-wolseley-warwick-technology-park&page= –> <!– Loaded Template: base.php –>
Wolseley UK is the country’s largest supplier of building materials, with trade customers, such as plumbers and builders, accounting for the largest proportion of its sales. They launched their Liftshare Scheme in November 2018 at their headquarters in Warwick.
By producing a Scoping Smart Mobility report Liftshare identified that 65% of Wolseley staff had viable Liftshare options and therefore the organisation rolled-out a Liftshare Scheme.
After the first on-site Liftshare event, 61% of Wolseley’s staff signed up to their Liftshare scheme, with 40% of their total staff turning into Liftsharers!
Throughout the process of introducing Liftshare into our business, I have found them to be very professional, flexible and responsive to our specific needs. The Products available have proved to be very valuable to our colleagues and our business.

Trip Authentication
Wolseley UK have been using Liftshare’s Trip Authentication tool since December 2018, and, so far, have had 33% of their staff authenticating their trips. Trip Authentication is the technology whereby clients can track how often liftshares are actually taking place, and see in real time how many people are validating their liftshare on a daily basis.
The Liftshare Trip Authentication tool is a very innovative product. It gives the managers of the service the information they require to ensure daily carsharing is happening. It is simple for the users and ensures they feel safe in the fact the car sharing benefits aren’t being abused by other employees.
All in all, the tool is invaluable to the better understanding stake holders require make informed decisions on the work place parking.
