    Much the same as previous years.

    - Complete Flanders (260km route)
    - Complete Morzine sportive (shorter, but about 4000m of climbing)
    - Break the 60 mins for the Richmond Park challenge
    - 8000km / 5000miles in SCStats
    - Average more than 3 days a week commute.
    - Take part in proper TT
    - Long Tour (2 weeks)
    - Lose 10kg (gets me to 89kg / 14 stone)

    Job in London:
    I was on secondment the last year - heading back to home office which is Swindon from the 4th :(, but I'm working on an internal transfer to the office in London :).

    Bike Co.:
    Part of the reason I've been scarce lately. I hope to post more on this over the next few weeks (my partner is keen to keep the details under wraps until then). Provided all goes to plan, it obviate the need for the internal transfer :).

    Cool. Good luck! :) Look forward to hearing more details when you can divulge them.

    1. Finish the Marmotte (and other sportives I enter)
    2. EDIT: get down to 11st 12 from the present 12st 12lbs to help achieve 1 (I was, ahem, a bit heavier than I thought...)
    3. Break 54 mins for the Richmond Park 3 Lap Challenge
    4. Finish in the top half of the field in a cyclo-cross race
    5. Break 7,000 miles for the commute (consistency being the theme here)

    EDIT: and break 6.10 for Box Hill.
    FCN 2-4.

  • Mine are:

    Get up half an hour earlier so I have enough time to take the kids to the childminders on their bikes and I can ride to work most days.
    Sign up for a charity ride.
    Get out more as a family on the bikes.
    Get in shape for my holiday in August!

    Simple!
  • Top 50 mph on the downhill run I can use as one way into work. :twisted:

    Is this a good resolution I ask myself?
    Chunky Cyclists need your love too! :-)

    Roll on 2010!!!

    1. Get fitter than I have been since I was in my 20's
    2. Eat and drink far more healthily - less booze, more salad.
    3. Cycle from Glasgow to Durness, camping all the way - May-ish I hope.
    4. Cycle over 6,000 miles in the year commuting, touring, and leisure.
    5. Finish in top 100 in Rob Roy Challenge - very big challenge, over 700 do it.
    6. Do decent time in Etape Caledonia, beat the sweep up bus!!
    7. Watch Total Solar Eclipse on Easter Island, on same day that Chile win the World Cup. (going to do first part, second part would pay for first part, as I have a small wager on it!)
    8. Meet the woman of my dreams.....
    9. Not to break a rib skiing.
