2018 Goals

[Aravis]

I'd like to do more miles.

To do that I'll need to get out more often, breaking the habit of a lifetime by doing rides that are shorter than 100 miles. Mixing things up a bit would do me a lot of good, I'm sure, but I may not be willing to take my own advice. I could be back here in a year's time with the same conflict.

Cycling related (ish)

- be well all year (well being defined as being able to get out on the bike so not including sniffles and the like)
- be in bed before midnight at least 4 nights a week
- get out on the bike more than last year (aiming for 100+)
- ride more miles than last year
- complete the RideLondon 100 (for charity)
- get a new bike*

I'm aiming for 2500 miles including at least one imperial century. That will be almost double my total for 2017 and almost double my longest ride to date.

I'm also aiming to buy no new bikes this year, something I've been terrible at for the last 18 months...!

4. Enter my 1st sportive

These first 3 for me too.

Try not to crash.

Good goal to have. Last year I made it to 2nd Jan. This year hope to last a little longer before crashing.

 

[Sharky]

Main objective this year is to make it to the start line again for when the club 10's start again. And if I can get a little bit fit, ride a few opens and would really like to do a 50. Has been a while since the last one.

I did far more miles than I targeted in 2017, but some of those were done simply to get the miles in. This year I'd like to complete the Imperial Century a Month challenge (I've never ridden 100 miles so that may be interesting), along with the Metric 100 & 50 I dod this year. There is also the small matter of getting out more on the ICE trike, which I love but seems to fall to the bottom of the list every time, so I need to fettle that a little and spend some time on it.
I'd also like to do a mini tour with my lad, current thinking is a 2/3 day ride from home to Weymouth, with a lift back..

 

[Biff600]

These first 3 for me too.

I'm planning on doing No. 3 at the end of April, before the agreement starts in May

 

[LeetleGreyCells]

1. Cycle more often and further
2. Complete metric half century challenge
3. Get the wife and kids out on bikes more

 

[greenmark]

Taiwan KOM Challenge (amateur edition) - 24 June
Maratona dles Dolomites - 1 July
Etape du Tour - 8 July

I've signed up and booked accommodation for rides 2 and 3 already. I hope to sign up to the first when registrations allow.

 

[Lee_M]

Get over injuries sustained 2 days before Christmas.

Not crash again

Get back out on bike

Not a lot to ask is it?

 

[ianrauk]

Same as every year. 10'000 miles and the Imperial Century a month Challenge.

 

[AndyRM]

Get up early on weekend mornings and go for a ride.

 

[T.M.H.N.E.T]

Be more awesome (already achieved so I'm having a lazy year)
