First of all, I wanted to thank you again for such a super weekend. One other kudo I think you deserve is your obvious interest in staying current–and not just on mountain biking. You shared a wealth of knowledge from other sports, psychology, and just how to live a better life. But you made it all relate to the task at hand. You seem to stay aware of pertinent trends both on and off the bike. Despite your vast experience, you do a great job of sharing the knowledge, experience and research of others as well. It was never like you presented yourself as “Gene the All-Knowing” but rather became a conduit of valuable information arising both from your personal experience and from others. It was sometimes like we had access to a whole faculty, not just one person. Very well done.
Thanks again and best wishes for all your future endeavors.
