And have you ever thought about how to make the limited seat time you have more effective? Turns out there is good practice and bad practice... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uY384Jlvy6E  Think abut this video in the context of improving your racing skills.

Another article by Vivek: http://www.beyondseattime.com/smoothness-vs-aggression/

I really like this one, since it describes my biggest flaw these days (smooth, but insufficiently aggressive).

I'm not sure that is your biggest flaw.   ;D

The post is really really good though.

hehe ...

Anyways, .... here's a great talk by Neal Tovsen (who will be coming here to talk ... and teach us at the SoloPro School in May) and Shane Donohue (sp?) from the Cone Coach (e.g. Neal). 

It is 52 minutes but I think worthwhile giving a listen to:

Yeah, but I didn't think I needed to mention the old and ugly part :P
