Transcript

Yeah. I mean I've had many mentors in my life, which I've been very fortunate to have godfathers as I call them. You know, those that don't judge you, that listen and and give you their advice and and and don't judge you which is as I said, which is which is really, really cool. And I I try and do that in in my team with people that I work with and all the time and every single day and I think. What people forget is that you have two ears and one mouth, you know, and so you should, you should engage with people in that ratio. So you should listen twice as much as you speak. And that's something that's hard when you're a leader and lots of leaders are dictators and it's it's my way or the highway. But our approach is, is totally different and I think it comes from our cultural background, but. So that's that's the one bit of advice and then of course the other bid is just to be you know I've always talked about intensity, you know it's it talks to your level of focus, determination. And striving for excellence, Never, never give up and never drop the ball, never be mediocre. You know, when you wanna do something and succeed in it, you have to. In the competitive world that we live in today, you have to have intensity in everything that you do. And it's a competitive mindset. And that's, you know, all of that kind of stuff is, you know, is really, really important.

Heads up: On Sept 13 a new reference for cycling computer accuracy will be launched: The One by Absolute CyclingI Imagine going for the same ride not just twice or three times, but 10 times, and seeing a cumulative climbing figure that is accurate across all rides. And while you ride, your incline data will be spot on; each climb, each time. No more approximate incline numbers on your screen. No post-filtering needed to present data on your training and social ride platforms. The One is a dawn to a new day; of solid, reliable, quality data.
