I am just starting to think about my goals for next year. I think they will focus on just a few things:

  • Work on technical skills, like descending and cornering
  • increase my average speed just a tiny bit by consistently riding with people who are faster than me
  • Try to avoid my late summer "break down" that comes from too much time on the bike. Learn to rest well.
  • Improve my core strength (already started on that)
  • mountain bike more
  • Do another century, maybe 2 this year
  • Lead a short series of late winter/early spring warm up rides with my husband
  • Take a vacation where I bring my bike and ride, but it's not a bike tour (i.e. relax a little)
