oooh Bikerchick, I love this topic.
I used to think goals would ruin the fun of cycling but it turns out that it was very motivating to have some reasonable goals in 2005.
Most of my goals are based on local rides/landmarks so they won't make sense to most folks..but what the heck...here they are:
1) Acadia National Park visitor center to the top of Cadillac Mountain in 36 minutes or less.
2) Ascent of Cadillac Mountain in under 21 minutes
3) A century ride
4) West Side Ride in under 1 hour and 45 minutes
5) Acadia Triathlon in under 2 hours and 5 minutes
6) Improve on 2005 Time Trial time by 30 seconds or more
7) Enjoy cycling even more than last year
