Re: [RC] on newbies - Kristene Smuts

Lysane, very good post and I think you summarised it quite well.


But it still remains that the advice, stories and experiences shared, and 
opinions voiced are quite invaluable to a person like me trying to get going 
in the sport.>>


I think Americans (not trying to be nasty, just pointing out an observed fact) 
think that the rest of the world has the same kind of access to knowledge than 
they do.  NOT!!!  This list has been invaluable to myself and to the few other 
South Africans on this list - without it we would not have the foggiest about 
what we are doing.  Only now are South Africans getting to use e-lytes as a 
rule - most riders didn't know what you were talking about when you mentioned 
it!  The other good thing that came from being so far away, is that I've had to 
take what I could, adapt what I could, and if it didn't feel right, would 
ignore it.

And that is exactly what your post did very well in pointing out.

Kristene
