I am thankful that a couple of women have told me we can ride together, but it would be nice to know what a formal 1-on-1 training session would cost if it should turn out to be needed. I've emailed one of the professional coaches that live in Indy to find out, really just for the information. I need to get this dog bite bill settled!

This is a very good idea. I've no intention on clipping in for quite some time to come, not on the mountain bike. I've some great BMX pedals - they will tear your legs up without protection though so I have shin guards. I was self-conscious about the shin guards before the sessions started Sunday, but was quite thankful for them before the day was over.

If I had been clipped on Sunday on the trail my falls would have been much worse - and at the intro/beginner level I don't think we do anything where that would be required. So, for now, I reserve my Frogs for my other bikes.
