As a beginner, what I appreciate the most is that you more experienced riders (Wahine, etc) take the time to encourage the newbies.
I posted earlier this season about doing a sprint triathlon, and I was SOOO appreciative that you guys were willing to take the time to answer my questions. Then when I posted my results, you treated me just like I had finished an Ironman.
So, that is what makes you guys so special in my book!
And, Wahine, I am one of those that didn't leave my computer all day while I watched you compete in the Ironman Canada. I thought you were absolutely incredible and very, very inspiring!

P.S. And now I am doing my very first century ride on Sunday. Yea, me!

not too long ago there was a thread about avatars and identifying a person that way. I always pictured Wahine as a Hawaiian![]()

Starfish & Wahine,
Thanks for the encouraging words... I am really happy this week, doing some nice easy spins, and packing up my things.
