Was that Pebbles or Bam Bam?

Pebbles delivered a good workout with variety during his maiden Q this morning as 22 men posted on this first cool morning of the season. Flying Dutchman (see description below) was a new twist to the workout routine.  It seemed to push everyone to knockout the merkins to reduce hold time.

Great lead by Pebbles and follow by PAX.  Mumblechatter was heard as Groundhog day was considered from back and forth COP stations.  The cold didn’t keep the committed from posting to see what Pebbles had to offer.  People’s Chairs with brick was the  crowd pleaser.
