The Silver Bullet

The Team has a strict requirement for all members to be at race weight at certain times of the season. As a few are struggling with those last few pounds despite the current exercise regime, the product below is proposed as a solution for your current dilemma (even for those who have 'drifted away from elite level fitness').
I will put in a request to the equipment manager for a sample of this product. The best thing is one size fits all so we can share the suit, those with a history of not laundering Team Issue clothing are advised to purchase their own individual suit.

Get ready to take it to the Max!

Terror on The Track


It seems the Team has met it's first immovable object of the season. Without reason and provocation DBD & ABD encountered a 'gentlemen' who believed that wearing an oilers cap allowed him to progress in a direction that was counter the normal flow of traffic at the beautiful indoor track facility here in Penticton (thanks Adidas & IMC).

Maybe he got there first?
Maybe he took objection to comments made about his walking speed?
Maybe he's bitter it's been 20 years since his team touched the cup?
Maybe he thought he was still in Edmonton?

Should he be encountered again (indoors or outdoors) he shall be addressed as 'BBD', Bitter Big Deal. Let's keep an eye out for him and welcome him to the roster if we happen to 'run' into him again.

Happy Waitangi Day



Today is Waitangi Day!

Waitangi Day is a significant day in the history of New Zealand. It is a public holiday held each year on February 6 to celebrate the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi, New Zealand's founding document, on that date in 1840.

I think there may only be one team member who appreciates this post and he just got back from the land of Kiwis!

Are you alive KBD?
