you had better join a better club than your football team otherwise 95% of the members will live more than 50 miles away, and only 22% ever turn up to a club event!!
I've done a metric century this year and am on target to do 1000miles (only started road cycling in mid july) so I guess it's:
1) do an imperial century
2) 2000 miles in 2011
Bournemouth hopefully, its not really the clubs its the storage of the bike. I don't really want to leave my Road and MTB locked up outside because I wont get too sleep at night, so the only option is in the dorm but then the dorms are only just big enough for 1 person let alone 1 person and 2 bikes so its a matter of taking the 1 bike and thats going to be a hard decision *sigh*

As above (except started road cycling last week in August) and
3) Coast to Coast (as soon as the days are long enough and the weather's nice)
3) Coast to Coast (as soon as the days are long enough and the weather's nice)
Good plan! It's only 140 miles so I guess if you can do 100 miles it's fairly doable to do 70 miles on consecutive days? I've seen a postcard on the top of Hartside pass in cumbria for a B&B that will collect you (and bikes) in a minibus and then take you back the next morning... Plus the cafe at the top does ace cakes and cuppas!
Get a job to replace the one I shortly won't have
PB for 10, 25 and 50
Finish at least one RR in the main bunch
Avoid the hazy descent into middle aged alcoholism
