Q&A with Alise Post

Alise Post

BMX Superstar, Alise Post, is answering your questions in the GO211 Team Q&A.

58. Are you going to meet Sam's parents when you go to worlds? ha ha

from: Tim Dinger

yes i am...about time huh???

57. do you like lil wayne song playin with fire?

from: chopstick

i like it when toothpick, not chopstick, sings it ridiculously loud to my parents. HAHAHA

56. So I hear that you have feet with nasty toes? Whats up with that Hammer foot?

from: Tim Dinger

Dinger, I would definitely like it if you would actually take a good look at my feet next time you see them. They are actually not too shabby. You see, before I never took care of my feet because they were always in the gymnastics room, full of chalk drying them out, getting cuts, ripping nails....but since gymnastics ended...i think you might be surprised. Lee doesn't mind them anymore either...(he even painted them...which means he had to touch them!!) haha

55. How come you don`t like chipotle? Masa

from: Masa Sampei

Mufasa, I know it's weird, but I am one of the few people in this world that doesn't like Chipotle. I have never been big on mexican food in general. I have tried numerous things there, and have just never been a big fan....i don't know why. It also makes me sick...maybe because of the spices?? i don't know masa...but i am sorry i didn't go there with you guys. FANNY ANN'S WAS AMAZING THOUGH!! =]

54. what was the weight of your bike bag at the airport last night?

from: LubbA

well, i didn't weigh the bag you saw packed....i did a little rearranging. The bag i weighed however, weighed 47lbs. is that what you guessed? i think it is...

53. Do you train? if so how?

from: Eric Wright

yes i train...there's really no secrets. you do the normal sprints, gym, plyos, and ride ALOT. I think being involved in other sports that trigger your "fast twitch" muscles is also a big help.

52. do you do demos?

from: Chad DeGroot

Not sure how you would classify a demo...but I have done a few community ed classes, bmx introductions at schools, parades, and others things like that to get people involved.

51. Hey Alise, are you going to be at the St. Cloud state qualifier? I hear your there alot and it would be cool to meet you!

from: BMX4LIFE

As of now...yes i will be. I am possibly extending my trip to australia though, so it is questionable if i'll be there. If you see me there though, feel free to say hello! Why don't you come up for some of the local racing as well? it's a great track!

50. are you an eskimo?

from: Chad DeGroot

yup. living by the north pole makes me good friends with santa claus and also allows me to have sweet pets like polar bears and penguins. sometimes people think it's weird that i live in an igloo, but it's amazing how warm an ice house is! =]

49. so you're my girfriend right???

from: alekmpowell21

i think sam would have something to say about that...haha

48. You should really say hi to mulville if you see him. He is really shy.

from: Chad DeGroot

haha we'll have to break the ice for him

47. why did i see ya at southpark and not say hi??

from: mark mulville

i don't know...that sounds like a personal problem lol jk. you should've!

46. 109. Do u go to Church? if u do what Church do u go to? I go to New Life Community Church! from: ALISE POST FANS I don't go to church as much as I would like but I go to First Christian when I do. 108. have u ever been baptized? if so when? i was 6,7 or 8 when i was baptized! from: ALISE POST FANS Yes I was baptized when I was 17, 18 or 19. 107. Do u Pray b4 u race a moto, main, or even b4 u go to practice? from: ALISE POST FANS I pray the night before races and always before I do something for the first time. Then of course give thanks after. 106. so u listen to christian music! i knew that lol! so what is ur favorite Christian Band? and what is ur favorite Christian Song? from: ALISE POST FANS Hmmm well my favorite song is, "All I Want is You" by Planetshakers. Favorite band? I can't say I have a favorite necessarily because there are so many that come out with good songs. MercyMe, Casting Crowns are always good though. 105. hey i was reading through the questions b4 i asked u my questions. i c u say that u only ride ur bike and train and all that stuff. What about reading the Bible or going to Church? from: ALISE POST FANS just in case you forgot :)

from: Tony Hoffman

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..I have NOTHING to do with the "ALISE POST FANS" person/page or whatever it is...maybe i need to start regulating because I know who does lol

45. Do you think riding a Street (freestyle) bike around town will help me with my racing ability??? Or will riding my Race bike help more???

from: Sammy Strader

I think riding any bike to practice your skills will help. Freestyle riding is definitely going to give you more bike handling control but you want to keep riding your race bike on the track as well to keep up your speed!

44. Where do u see yourself in the next ten years in this sport? What are your future goals?

from: smash120500

My goal with riding is to get a medal in the 2012 Olympics. After that, if BMX remains in the Olympics, I would probably go for another round or two of it. However if not, then I would probably scale back on my personal riding and just ride pro at the ABA nationals and what not while I furthered my education to go into the medical field. I think i'll stay around BMX for a long time though, whether it be riding, teaching clinics, coaching, or being the event doctor.

43. You have got to be the most fun loving female pro that I know. How much has your family played in making you who you are today? Love your mom and pops. Thanks for keeping me in your graduation celebrations with me being so darn far away. Miss you guys!

from: Deanna

Thanks Deanna!! of course we couldn't forget you... but anyways... Without my family I know the only place I WOULDN'T be is traveling the world training for the Olympics. Their continued support over the years has made me the motivated, successful, and confident young gal I am today. It's no doubt that most of the opportunities I've gotten are because of them!

42. To my buddy da Beast! When it comes to training at the track how does your schedule go? Is it all first straight practice, 50% full track? I see so many riders practice the track with no real training outline. Recovery between laps always seems to be a sour point as I don't think enough attention is given to this.

from: Deanna

It all depends on the training day. Some days are specifically just for skills and I don't even get a gate. Some days it's all gates and first straights. On others it's full laps. Whatever the day's purpose is, I train for at 100%. Sometimes on skill days I might not actually GO 100%, but I will give it my 100% effort to get better at new (and old) things on the track. if that makes sense?? I agree that rest isn't taken seriously enough. i always thought the more you rode the better you'd get...which is true when you're 8 with all the energy in the world. however, as you get older the rest gets mor important as you want to train your body/muscle memory at 100%. Quality over quantity.

41. do girls wear cups when they ride? Because any one doing the shit you do has some cahonas!

from: Nate Yeomans

haha sometimes I think that would be a good idea!! lol...but if the guys aren't even wearing 'em....pretty sure the girls shouldn't be!!

40. Will you marry me??

from: randy

Do I know you?

39. whats the deal with switching over to redline .. and how long have you been racing so u remember signing a jersey for me when i donated my formula frame?

from: jacob hinzpeter

Redline is a great company with a longstanding name. I am very happy with my switch to a very well respected team with a nice big pit area at every race!! =] i have been racing for 12 years now, and I've signed a lot of jerseys and what not in that time so i'm not going to lie...it's a little hard to remember signing your specific jersey!! what did you donate the frame for again??
