Happy New Year! Hope everyone had a safe and fun holiday. The long weekend is just beginning for some (not me, I work tomorrow). So the "new year" doesn't start until Monday, the 5th. But it's close, either way.
What are your goals for the year? I'm putting this in General Bike Talk so let's keep it bike related. Maybe Ben can dial up a GTKY#13 about non-bike resolutions/goals.
Mine:
1. Weight less. For the first time since about 7th grade, I saw the 170s on the scale just last week. I'd like to see how low I can go. Maybe 171 or even 169?
2. Ride as often as I rode in 2008, but more time in the saddle, and more time on the mountain bike.
3. Ride all the major parks in NJ, and some of the less major ones. Also venture out of state a few times (Stewart, Blue). Ride Ringwood, Wawayanda, and Allamuchy more.
4. Try to enjoy being on the bike as much as possible.
I don't have any specific numbers. If I had to throw some out in terms of what stb's thread discussed, I would say to weight 171, get 225 rides, and 500 hours in the saddle. Maybe 75 of those rides on the mountain bike? At least 12 rides (not counting races) in Allamuchy, Ringwood, Wawayanda, Blue, Stewart.
Let's hear what you have lined up!
