What are your 2013 New Year resolutions?

get a new job that doesn't involve driving something.

I've never really seen the point of this tradition of putting off making a decision until some arbitrary point in the calendar. Out of curiosity, how long do these procrastinated decisions typically last into the year?

I don't see it in the frame of 'must loose 2 stone this year' kind of thing, more a plan of what I would like to achieve in the forthcoming year.

My thoughts are verging towards setting a wedding date, to be announced when the bedroom suite is completed this year. It means I will want to get that bedroom, laundry, and bathroom built, plumbed, wired, plastered, decorated and all woodwork done. It also includes designing and making at least the bed if not many other pieces of furniture for the room.

The decision wasn't procrastinated either as the work was started properly some months ago but other jobs have gotten in the way.

And of course, I'll be helping when I can!

Drink (and eat) less

My resolution for last year was lose a couple of stone, and ride more, and that resolution lasted oh let me see a year.
Funny that.

Anissa Kate and LOTS of baby oil

 

[Pat "5mph"]

To give up smoking swearing and being so rude to people in P+L

Aye, you got a thread not merely locked but completely erased ...innit?

 

[slowmotion]

Visit Lidl more
Avoid all news/ earnest opinions/ peer-reviewed papers etc about Climate Change. (Especially that ghastly David Shukman)
Actually, avoid ALL news. "Nothing really matters until it's closer than the house next door" (Steve Forbert: Born too late)
Ride 100 miles by myself.
More FNRttCs than 2012
Be thankful for a lot.
Learn to ballroom dance almost adequately
Take the bike to Europe again

Apart from learning to dance, my targets are pretty modest, really.

[Hotblack Desiato]

Not to get so wet.

 

[fossyant]

So far so good.

Longer route commutes completed - check
Back to the Gym - check

Weekend rides with local club - next !

 

[Maz]

Only ever done 1 group ride, so I want to do a lot more!

 

[tyred]

My new year's resolution is to stop making new year's resolutions.

 

[threebikesmcginty]

It's a convenient point to draw a line under one's excesses and to start afresh but to keep you happy and break with tradition I'll use February 17th.

I'm starting mine on February 29th this year.

Try and post a bit on the forum. Go fishing didn't do any in 2012. Start riding again only been running in the last 6 weeks or so. Hopefully earn a bit more last year was poorest year I can remember I am self employed
