I don't want to hear "I didn't know it was due then!" it's right there, and everyone else knew it was due! Pelotonics keeping track definitely motivates some of the slackers on my projects. </p> http://forums.pelotonics.com/topic/pelo-for-fundraising-groups#post-66 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 17:09:59 +0000 PeloFan 66@http://forums.pelotonics.com/ <p>Hey that's funny, I was just thinking I could use it with a local community event I am chairing.
