1. Buy a road bike (have a Terry hybrid now)
2. Attend a skills/training class or camp to improve
my cycling and bike maintenance skills
3. Finish a metric century
4. Join a local bike club
5. Make it all the way up the Maple Corner Farm hill
without walking- (my personal nemesis)
6. Lose 20 pounds (I guess that is not a cycling goal,
but it sure would help with goal #5)
7. Most important- Have fun!!!!!!!
Great goals!

I think we all have a #5 in our lives - I finally did "my hill" and now it is to get up faster! - it never ends And I have discovered a couple of others I need to try

Re #6
Everyone talks about lightening up their bikes, I just decided 20 lbs off my body would be cheaper
