Simon-Van-Velthooven is an inspiring speed cyclist. He came to our school and told us all about his life and the Olympics. Every school day he would bike about 8 km to school. He loved biking to school. One day an athlete came to his school. He was a speed cyclist and he inspired Simon to take cycling to the next level. A few years later Simon is going to the Olympics biking 1km in 1 minute. He says if you want to do something stick with it and try hard. At assembly he let us hold his Handle bars and helmet One of the things that he talked about was his bronze medal. He was was talking about how happy he was and how hard it was to get bronze. I know that feeling because, in the tennis semi finals, I came third in the whole manawatu for my grade. It feels like like all the weight is gone off your shoulders.

The meddle is petty heavy don't you think
ReplyDeleteThank you for agreeing to do this special task for me and I was really impressed with how much you got out of Simon coming to chat with us. I thought it was pretty cool to meet someone who has won an Olympic medal as thats a pretty challenging thing to do.
