Discussion on Mentor Programme

[lozz666]

I volunteer myself to be a mentor!

[Number One]

As someone who is currently seeking input from an appropriately skilled person (in prep for full license test) I feel very lucky that I know more than a few who I could approach.

My concern with the set up of the mentor nomination threads is that for those that are new to biking and KB there are no publicly viewable 'balanced' comments about the nominated mentors.

I can understand the idea behind not wanting to provide an opportunity for people to just take a crack at the nominated peeps but to me the removal of anything 'negative in relation to the persons riding attitude or skill' and now the locking down of the threads completely removes any opportunity (for those that don't know suitable people to approach) to make an 'informed' decision about who might be good to give them some useful feedback on their riding.

My two cents take it or leave it - whatever...as I said I am lucky as I know some goood people

Oh stop being so sensitive lol

Yeah I put my hand up, naturally.
the whole thing it seems to me is getting kinda a waste of internet space, ie in the two odd years I have been a mentor I mentored one person once, and he was a mate anyway, so the reality of this is , it aint a big deal.
Sorry I upset you, now come give me a big man hug

What a great system. I am a Noob returning after many years away, and will welcome the advice/input from those more experienced. Your responsible approach to the mentoring porgram is to be recommended.

Each one was a forum on its own All nice things are said there and Negative feedback goes to Helen.Clark@executive.govt.nz where it will be apppropriately filed

Kiwi Biker Forums > General Bike Stuff > Survival Skills > KB Mentors Programme, it's right there on the top of your screen

That just points to a list of currently approved mentors, which in turn links to their profiles.
I want to see a list of nominees who are yet to be appointed.

I'm not appointed yet and my names is still there... ???

The announcement for each of the candidates is in the Mentoring forum. If they're not in the list of current Mentors then they're still under consideration.
