Talk @Pat "5mph" into saying Yes when asked :smile:
Find out where @jazloc has gone

I did mean to get my first imperial century under my belt this year but it never happened ... maybe 2014 will be the year?

Otherwise, as always, cycle more miles than the previous year.

Oh, and keep working on getting my confidence back re: corners on descents.

And have another bash at getting up the long hill from Bishops Lydeard to Ralegh's Cross. And give Cothelstone Hill a go.

Can't wait to see this proposal on the next Arran ride!
 
My list:
Ride 3,000 miles
Climb Mount Teide on Tenerife from sea-level (by bike and on foot)
At least 5 imperial centuries
Enter an audax
Overcome (understandable) fear of night-time riding
Go on a big tour (2014 marks 9 years since I did JoGLE, far too long ago)
Lose five stone (3kg down already since starting a couple of weeks ago)
Try not to be offended about being called a moaner by @Louch and @Fubar
Do one of the Bealach na Ba sportives without crying, mumbling or becoming confused

When did I call you a moaner?!?

I think the answer to "when did you not call me a moaner?" would be shorter :whistle:
 
Always start the year with good intentions of logging mileage but it never lasts beyond the first few weeks.

2013 was going to be a big year with LEL and the cingles planned. A poor training regime and injury saw me pulling out of LEL and a storm foiled my cingles attempt 3/4 of the way through. Still managed my double century and completed Ventoux from all 3 sides, just not on the same day.

2014 dunno, holidays aren't falling right for a multi-week tour so no real plans.

Since i'm starting from a basic underlying level of fitness, i'm aiming for 1000 miles, and to do at least 1 50 miler :biggrin:

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I'm just looking forward to some nice weather and being able to ride my bike again, and hopefully get fit and loose a few pounds. Whatever your goals for 2014 ladies and gents I hope you achieve them all and then some. Good luck everyone.

Same as the last 4 years, 10,000+ miles and the century a month challenge.

Also
A 200+ miler (Perhaps the Dunwich Dynamo - there and back)
12 weekends and 12 century rides in a row (I did 11 in a row this year)
