Thanks Andy

Hope Elapid appreciates that this is not presented as evidence of any skill as a coach. JUST BRAGGING!!!

Congratulations ... sincerely.

I have never questioned your skills as a coach, and have said so previously. I do question your ability to read and interpret the scientific literature, and your dogmas regarding anecdotal evidence. However, this does not detract from your abilities as a coach or your knowledge and skills in this area. Again, congratulations on your award and all the best of luck to you and your cyclists in the Olympics.

concur. the ability and commitment to motivate young athletes to peruse their dreams and perform at their highest abilities is to be applauded. the rest as seen on this site is questionable.

congrats

Belated congratulations

But I have to ask you...is there a piece missing from your "award"? I'm assuming that is the BikeNZ logo down on the lower right, yes? Why didn't they incorporate that whole logo design in perspex? Right now it looks like a rabbit heading down hill on a unicycle wrapped in a tulip!
