Word on the street is the Jill Kintner will be up checking out the Abby track that night. I'm so bummed that I'm working that night but I think it would be so worthwhile to be able to watch her on the track. You might just pick up some of her uber-4x skillz!!

EDIT: note to the FVMBA guys: Jill just did a women's clinic down at Peninsula Indoor. Maybe it would be worth asking if she had any interest in doing a clinic up here sometime. I wouldn't miss that!

Sparkplug,
I will ask her, we want a ladies only clinic here.
Over the years we have done lots of them.
Jill if you read this contact me.
WE all need more women riders, what ever fvmba or abbotsford bmx can do we will
gary
fyi
womens clinic is full of women /girls, encouraging each other and laughing.
mens clinic as a rule tends to be a little more serious ?
my observations.

Just for clarity, it doesn't need to be a women's only clinic. I'd be stoked to go to any clinic that Jill coaches.

I would need to know that there would be at least 4 or 5 ladies that were commited. Lots to learn from the 2003 BC Cup 4x Champ haha

I'd be interested in a clinic, would prefer women only, (and sorry Corey), would prefer a female coach too (though it's not a deal breaker).

In my experience, while there many be lots of laughter and encouragement in a women's clinic, it can be just as serious as men's/co-ed.

I am not offended at women that prefer female coaches/instructors.

I do however think that choosing a coach based on gender is well……

Women's only clinics in terms of students I do like tho, but I really like it when men and women are mixed but at the same level. Those groups are the best.

As I said, not a deal breaker - most important I think is coaching skill (not riding/racing skill/experience), and agreed, a group that is a similar level works best :-)
