I went for a ride last week with one of the mentors and i must say it really added to the learning curve. I can really recommend it.
The thing I found the most useful was the 'on-site' and 'immeidate' feedback. We went through a couple of twisties and took turns leading - it gave me a feel of speeds, lines and all that - and it also gave the mentor a chance to look at my lines etc.
It really helped to get tips without the usual BS and without all the fan-fare!
Looking back i think its important to actually think what you want from a mentor. For me it's about getting inputs/comments about where I'm gettting into (potentially) bad habits for my level of skill.
I'll defininately keep using the mentor
Thanks KB for setting this up - :clap:
