Well I have been thinking for a little while and I have come up with an idea that I should be giving something back to kiwibiker and bikers in general.
I am a competent and confident rider and would like to become a mentor to coach some of the newer riders to offer them skills and ideas to make there riding career longer than it might otherwise be.
I think my specialty is road craft. I am not particularly quick on the track but have ideas to offer in road riding and how to combat various challenges that present themselves on the open road and town riding from reading the road surface, how to anticipate others actions on the road and generally developing good habits to ride smoothly and safely.
I have looked through the mentors and noticed that there is quite a gap in the mid/lower north island outside of wellington.
So first step is becoming an "official" kiwibiker mentor and then anyone who feels they need tips, or if you have kids who you feel would benefit from a mentor I am happy to help out where needed.
