... at the end of 2005 I weighed the same (110kg) but my shape had changed and I had dropped TWO dress sizes.

This year I have finally started "losing" weight and am 101kg (goal is to be under 100 by the new year).

My long term goal is to get under 90kg - 85kg would be great... but this is not because I want to look better - that might be a nice side effect...~Raven~

I'm impressed, Raven! Possibly a little bit confused, but impressed!

Things I've read about your riding skills -- time trials, and races and such -- and you're as heavy as I am!

On me, your long term goal is wayyyyyy too much yet, so you must have a bit of a height advantage, but I like the look of kg's over lb's, and your long term looks like a great short term goal for me! I think it will make hills easier for me too, when I'm down there below 90kg!
