ironannekidd - 2010-04-05 10:57 AM question for the group

They are looking for mentors again from the end of April through the end of June.

I have thought about doing it, but don't want to do it alone. Would anyone want to help me mentor a group?

I wouldn't ask except I'm not allowed to be unsupervised around adults.


LOL. Ann, you will be great as a mentor, supervised or not! 


i TOTALLY AGREE w AMY.

you'll be SMASHING!

skrtrnr - 2010-04-05 11:44 AM hey GHOULIES.

anyone catch the FANTABULOUS finish of the Tour De Flanders.  Cancellara was PHENOMENAL...especially when he took the lead on the final ascent...a seated climb on a 20% grade NO LESS, the steepest ascent on the course.

UN FRIGGIN BELIEVABLE.

heres the link to the VIDEO.  its in Flemish, but you get the gist.

on the left, click on the video titled:  Cancellara laat Boonen achter op de Muur.


Queen,

Are you F'ing kidding me!! Unreal and I don't even like the Swiss!!!  That was unbelieveable.  Boone looked like he got stuck in the mud!!


I.  KNOW.

that by far was one of THE most SPECTACULAR MOMENTS that ive EVER witnessed in cycling.

not only was it one of the STEEPEST/NARROWEST parts of the course.

but it was COBBLE STONE

AND it came after 6+ hours of racing.  [i want to say there was only 12km left]


Cancellara looked so strong and his pedal stroke was sooooo smooth.

and the fact that he did it seated.....just STUNNING to me.

So I was loading my bike into my car today and I kind of banged it going into the trunk...and then I apologised out loud to it...I think something along the lines of "oops, sorry, its okay" is what came out...

Apparently I'm crazy...haha...QQTD: Do you talk to your bike?



For sure!


Not yet, but I definitely apologize to my quads frequently.


give it time, TOM.

does your bike have a name?

name it, and maybe you'll talk to it.


stacieb


I haven't named her yet - I'm waiting for a name to just pop into my head and feel right. I do tell her she's pretty often though!

And all this time I thought you were talking to me when you said that.

I'm happy for her, but a little jealous at the same time.

Ann(e) - I would but I am gone June 3rd - July 4th.  If you would be alright with some periodic check ins I would have no problem helping you out.  I don't know if the ladies would be comfortable with female/male or if they think female/female would be better.

Contemplate my thoughts and let me know what you feel?


Honestly Bill I had never even thought about the whole gender thing. I'm guessing some people do though. I wouldn't have a problem with it, and if someone else does then they wouldn't have to be in our group.

We have knowledge and dammit we should share it!

As much as I'd love to help out, I feel like I'd be much better off as a "Mentee." I was actually really bummed last December because I hadn't checked BT for a few days when they opened up the Mentor program and I missed out. Oh well - maybe this time.


I keep joining as a mentee, but then feel like a dork.  Undecided


Why would you feel like a dork?


Because I already know the answers to most of the questions they have--and I am starting my 3rd season of tris, but I am chronically undertrained and have only done 3 tris. Embarassed

we have 4 or 5 streets with cobbles on them that I ride periodically - they are horrible and this is only 1 city block length!


this course was 'littered' w cobblestone.

i cant even imagine ascending.....or descending for that matter.

the pounding those guys took.

woosh.

1) You should never feel like a dork - even 1 tri is more than 99% of the population will ever do
2) Then you should help mentor the young or old impressionabe minds that someone would actually trust us with

my first season I was in Mila and Sparco' s group. It was nice. I've also been in Yanti and Beth's group, too.  A long as your co-mentor is strong in areas where you're not (do you even have any weaknesses?Other than for the hot gouhlie men, that is...) then the gender thing doesn't make any difference to the majority of women.
