Some of us make new year's resolutions while others of us should. Just curious who is aiming for something bike related this upcoming year. Triathlon in your future? Ride a certain amount of miles? Build a bike from scratch? Commute more on your bike?
Tags:
To familiarize myself with wheel and bike building, learn to be more zen out on the streets, and not be as lazy about getting on the bike when I don't want to.
Bumping this...
- Not just signing up, but actually doing a triathlon
- Doing a few centuries and/or RAGBRAI (didn't do any in 2013)
- Doing the entire PWP training series
- Getting healthier (eating well and getting more miles on the bike)
- Doing more social rides and events
- Doing at least one training ride a week in summer
- Doing at least one crit and CX race
- Doing at least one camping ride
NONBIKE
- Calling my dad everyday to say hi
- Finishing my wedding album
- Spending more time with my nieces and nephews
Fix an old girls bike that was my sisters and get my girlfriend on it.
>Complete the Great Lakes Brevet Series, including the 600k.
>Not try to complete the Wisc. Triple Crown AND the brevet series simultaneously. Doesn't work (for me) after trying 2 years in a row and completing neither due to knee pain.
>Find a way to work in a decent amount of everyday cycling now that I am expected to work from home and the 24-mile round trip to the office is a thing of the past.
Hopefully, get started riding by April, weather permitting.
- Ride RAGBRAI
- Expand my bike maintenance skill set
- Thank my every-patient wife for supporting my cycling by:
-- making an effort to talk about things that aren't bikes
-- replacing our 13-year-old car

Nothing ambitious about that list. ;)

1. Ride the first section of the Cal Sag Trail when it's open.
2. Lead at least 1 or 2 rides in sections of the city and suburbs where I haven't led a ride in the last few years.
3. Visit the Botanic Garden by bike - something I haven't done since the move to Beverly.
4. Get in more bike commute days next summer.
Don't push yourself too hard now. I know reaching for that remote can sometimes cause an old ache or pain to reassert itself.
