am i ready?.. hell no.. but that wont stop me from showing up...
its gonna be the first race for our team together... its gonna be a good team building day... i am always optimistic about being able to work together but its never seemed to happen yet... the best was me and J.Al and Devon and Bahati at superweek last year in the McGuire team...
with hegg and ken yamakoshi and ryan yee and the other guys being so goal directed and open i think its going to be the year... the thing with this group is lack of individualist attitude.. it doesnt seem at all that there are any overly selfish or ambitious riders... and they are all in fact useful on the bike.. which is the main thing...
we had a conference call yesterday to keep in contact and reiterate team goals.. we will be doing this twice a month to keep things on track and the communication open... my goal for the young riders is that they should all year just learn their trade... to be pro at anything you have to know what you are doing... a lot guys dont have much of an idea.. and if no one is there to help you its hard to learn.. you lose years in a career that is short as it is... a key to success is good mentorship...
for all the stuff i have done and experienced people i have been around not many of them have taught me a damned thing even when it should have been their job... so i want to make sure that what little i have been able to put together i can pass along to as many of these guys as possible...
