i didn't suggest you do anything...just pointed out to someone who suggested you consider some sort of coaching that you have stated you hate coaching.
since you bring it up a great deal of what good coaches do IS to impart wisdom gained from years of racing.
doesn't matter to me what you choose to do; it's your racing/life/whatever, and i assume you're happy with it. i assume you posted for recognition more than advice, but you got a mix.
