   Margaret has been a great cheerleader for me throughout this season. Keeping my spirits going throughout the toughest season off & on the bike I've ever encountered. My personal goals were, no question, very high going into the season and as life sometimes does turns things around. It happened during a time I thought I could achieve beyond expectation. Margaret kept me grounded and had me focus on the next task at hand rather than throwing my hands up and walking away each time there was a bump in the road, and there were plenty of bumps, bruises, and scraps. Her knowledge of training and racing bikes helped me become far more educated on how to train properly using not only heart rate monitoring but the use of a PowerTap and what tactics would best suit me under specific conditions. The only thing I didn't enjoy was realizing my weaknesses. However, as Margaret says, "knowing a weakness is like having an opportunity." Margaret was a pleasure and easy to work with.
