Another rare fauna find in the ACT

Recently an albino kangaroo was discovered alive and well roaming the ACT parks, the rarity of such a find cannot be overstated.

But in breaking news it now appears an even rarer species has been discovered: The Redheaded Prodigal Sheep, latin name prodigus ovium

It is also reported that NASA have sought out the Redheaded Prodigal Sheep's former QUON kit so that NASA engineers can replicate its fire proof properties to replace the ageing and now superceded flame retardant tiles on the Space Shuttles.

The QUON gingas welcome the bolstering of their ranks.

The vaunted Halvski review is producing results and far from cutting out deadwood has found formerly lost sheep. Unbelievable.

And Mongo.

QUONAB words of GFD's gone past.

My new brothers are great with wing men a plenty
The QUON pushed up my hit rate with quality quite fine, be it Randwick, Kaino Bruce Almighty or Flynny.
Some times even Uber hahaha now that’s just plain silly
It was Halvo most times before he got whipped
That would stand at the bar and say to a Joice - Daddy's got you just have one sip.

But there was one time when Uber was there,
It was Bruice and Kaino we were having a good stare,
at a few fine Joices at the top of the Stair.
Kaino had his tattoos out he was winning her over,
then Uber piped in Moshy go grab her while you're still a bit sober,
I thought no way how could I do it? Kaino’s a brother a man I love and respect, then he got out his shit tatt and the game was all over.
Joicie left with me and Randwick went home sober.

The Day Of Love

Lets not forget what its all about. Wednesdays are the day of Love. No fighting, no name calling, just a lot of love.

See everyone at Crits tomorrow afternoon.

Love Franky

The Day of Love

Finally, it is the Day of Love.  Team QUON wish nothing but the most loving thoughts to all in the Canberra cycling community.  We look forward to sharing the love at QUONlo tonight.

Flattie update

Team QUON will soon be rocking sick flatties at the crits, Knighties, your mums bedroom, generally everywhere.

Check out this pic of Randwick modelling an early concept of the TQ flattie at the Charnwood Primary open day last week.

Would the lady on the right please give me a ring at 1800-TeamQUON.

Complete Commitment, Complete QUON

Team QUON, or at least half of Team QUON, have put in an extraordinary effort over the off season to clear the decks and be able to dedicate their lives to the cause of QUON.  We can now train and compete without any needless extraneous external pressure or distraction, committed to putting our whole effort into a stunning display of cycling dominance on the QUONlo crit track.  Be warned and stand well clear as doors get blown off from tomorrow evening.

Pointscore update

Event Two of the QUON Poinstscore was recently run and won!

Despite older (not Elder) members of QUON running scared and choosing to travel interstate to participate in such gay (not that there's anything wrong with that) activities such as jelly wrestling, Event Two of the QUON Poinscore was a typically torrid affair.

Some - special mention to arguably the Greatest QUON Master Ever; Rock - ran their heart out fully knowing they would be backing up for the NSW Masters Championships road race that afternoon.

Others (no names Randwick) cheated themselves, the sport and, worst of all Team QUON. The horror. The horror. Back to X-Fit purgatory for you.

But the clear winner on the day, with five points was the QM. Uber, Team QUON salutes you. See what you can do when you start a race - winner winner chicken dinner.

Three cheers for the QM.

Other winners on the day were:

Terra (also arguably the Greatest QUON Master Ever): 5 points
Marty (arguably the Worst QUON Master Ever): 3 points
Rock: 2 points
Robbobo (second QUON ginga on the day): 2 points
DOMinator (aka Mr Ironman); 2 points

Randwick: minus 5 points. QUONbelievable.

QUON Window of Sponsorship

The date has been set. The venue has been chosen. The questions have been written, and the QUONabee's have begun to sweat.

Will Mishi and Flanners pass the test? Will Randy have enough dollar dollar bills to pay the necessary bribes? Will Flanners know enough about the Greatest Cycling Team in the Universe? Time will tell. 

Look out Bungendore, the boys from Yarramundi are back in town...

Lets spark up boys!!!

And what all QUONstituents really need to know is this, who is really pulling our strings?
Is it the QM or his faithful deputy (TDQM)?

QUONtroversy

The pointscore has been removed from the blog. It is currently with Deloitte who are conducting an audit. It seems that BD's points from indoor cricket, the hill climb and the TdF tipping comp haven't been accounted for. Word is BD has a sizeable lead going in to tomorrow's RR. 

STOP PRESS STOP PRESS

Maritime authorities have today released a press statement that is believed to be linked to the most prestigious race on cyclings calendar, the QUON Road Race. The QRR is scheduled for Saturday morning the 11th May. The statement, which does not appear to be finialised, was said to have been found beside the image above on a photocopier.

"I would like to thanks the team for the opportunity that I have been given today. I will begin by announcing my revolutionary 4 point plan (note to self, don't forget to get this off Terra)

1. From now on all events will start and finish within 50 meters of O'Connor shops (#socentral)
2. Points will be deducted for people who actually follow through and do anything to support any events the QUON are holding.
3. Arm flapping is to be rewarded above all other things
4. From this day forward there will be no riding of criterium races, Triathlons will be the ultimate event.

Based on the above plan......."

While authorities have not identified the author of the plan it is believed that they are working with Australian Federal Police on a number of substantial leads.

QUON Master could be decided by Rap Battle

Team QUON Semi-Pro Cycling

 
PRESS RELEASE

For immediate release.

Written and authorised by: MC Kayne, Team QUON Rookie, puppet, and occasional spokesperson.
 

QUON Master could be decided by Rap Battle

I am releasing this statement today due to overwhelming public interest in the upcoming Team QUON Road Race World Championships (TQRRWC), which will be a key event in selecting the next QUON Master (QM).

It is no exaggeration to say that my phone has been running hot with inquiries regarding the likely outcome, from both the public and from within Team QUON itself.

I have also been approached by several of the protagonists, and their lobbyists, with suggestions as to the grading of athletes, the composition of teams, and the allocation of points for the TQRRWC.

All of these approaches have been given due consideration in determining the TQRRWC teams recently announced.

Not to pre-empt the outcome of the Road Race, where anything could happen, but it is highly likely that the competition for QM will result in a 3-way tie.

As you know, current QM Rock is fulfilling his obligations representing Team QUON at the Giro d'Italia, and will be unable to defend his title.

Uber and Randwick are at the top of the leaderboard, and Big Dog was reportedly seen on a bike recently, leading many to believe he is planning an under-the-radar shock-and-awe assault on the title.

In the likely event the pointscore is tied after the TQRRWC, I propose that the title of QUON Master be settled by a rap battle between the protagonists.

As you know, I am a well-regarded rap and hip-hop artist myself, and will be present to provide expert commentary and critique to assist in judgement.

For those who have not experienced a rap battle before, here are samples of what we can expect:

As an aside, my own recent release, #PermissionToWOW, is just about to go viral worldwide:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0JHJe35ccY

I have discussed this process with the contenders, and they have all commenced work on their raps.  They have also given me the following quotes for publication:

Uber: "(nervous laugh) QM? Does that mean I have to organise something?  I've never really been a fan of rap or hip-hop".

Randwick: "Well yeah whatever, my style is more instrumental electronica with endless loops and beats, but yeah, beats, I can work with that".

Big Dog: "Hip hop? That so-called musical genre beloved of scofflaws and the uneducated? Well, here's a message from me, I'll tell you to fuck off for free".

The rap battle will be held at EQ pending final allocation of points and the inevitable draw.

Its a FARKING Shambles....... as usual.

Nothing new here, its a shambles. What would you expect?

Only problem is the pigmentation in the hair follicles of the current leader of the point score.

Presidential Style Campaigning

With the final event on this years QUON calendar scheduled and set to take place this weekend, the run for QUON Mastership is still wide open. Add to this the rudderless ship that is the Elders at the moment with reigning QM taking a leave of absence at this, a crucial point in time and fleeing to a neutral country to take refuge.

Someone do something!
Where are the arm flappers?
Will someone save the QUON?
Who will you vote for?
Is there to be an Ollo QUON merger?
What happened to the youth policy?

So many questions, so many people looking for answers, who will you vote for?

I've got this.....

Congrats Mr and Mrs Potato

It's finally real. Not a rumor anymore. Congrats to Spud and his Joycie Spud.

Much love,
Team QUON.

Who's got one of these?

Matty got one.

Hey Jerry, the blog is back!

Motivation

Motivation is the psychological feature that arouses an organism to action toward a desired goal and elicits, controls, and sustains certain goal directed behaviors. It can be considered a driving force; a psychological drive that compels or reinforces an action toward a desired goal. For example, hunger is a motivation that elicits a desire to eat. Motivation has been shown to have roots in physiological, behavioral, cognitive, and social areas.

Motivation may be rooted in a basic impulse to optimize well-being, minimize physical pain and maximize pleasure. It can also originate from specific physical needs such as eating, sleeping/resting, and sex.
