    the best laid plans of mice and mothers...

    This year I hope to "ride the year." That is, put 2005 (or more) miles on the bike. Icky weather makes for a slow start, but I'm pretty much on track. If I manage it, this may become one of my traditions.

    I'd also like to take a multi-day mini-tour with my husband. I have a lifetime of potential tours in mind, it's just a matter of finding time - and negotiating which tour with DH. I'm also toying with the idea of a solo overnighter - or two.

    Closer to home, I want to get up to the opposite corner of the city. Not that there's anything there but an airport, but I've never biked up there and, well, it's there. I've said I'm going for years now, this is the year.

    All the above is in preparation for the Vancouver to Key West tour I'm dreaming of. Not this year, but eventually...

    My goals are to lose more weight and generally get more healthy. Unfortunately I have numerous health issues (even had a stroke just before my 28th birthday) so any exercise is good for me. Cycling, however, is _fun_ exercise so I'm most likely to keep it up.

    Besides, with my truck being weird, I'm commuting to work Nice constant daily exercise.

    Other than that, to ride lots with my hubby and by the end of the year, do 100 miles in a day (just not all at once )

    What a great idea for a thread.

    My goal also is to ride at least one century. I have continued to train on my trainer as not to have an "off season". I also would like my dh and I to take a mini multi-day tour. Like many of you, just have to juggle everyday life to fit in the cycling time. The light at the end of the tunnel is I don't have to put on my headlights coming home from work. Spring is coming!!!
