My big goal for 2011 is to learn how to MTB, hopefull without any broken bones.
As for my road bike, I just want to regain some consistency and discipline in my routine. I went through so much change over the last 18 months and was forgiving when it came to sticking to my former routine. It's time to re-focus. I'd like to do more climbing and get at least one century in. DH and I are doing an end-to-end tour of the Katy Trail in September, so I hope that keeps us both motivated. I also want to ride with my old riding buddies a bit more.
We have lots of hiking and camping planned for the spring and summer--including an April trip to Zion and Bryce Canyon.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

I have a few goals for 2011, one of which is to avoid more over-use injuries and to log at least 3k miles.
I would like an introduction to mountain biking (the Midwestern MTB clinic) and focus/improve my bike handling skills. If I see in the clinic that I CAN do this without breaking bones, then mountain biking will be a 2012 goal.
While I would love to do a brevet this year, first I will focus on doing a century without injury, then will consider a brevet. I want to focus on the finding and feeding of my inner hill-climbing beastie and just plain having fun on the bike. General touring/exploring/club rides while avoiding over-use injuries...
Continue to lose weight - but more importantly - lower my body fat percentage and add muscle mass. Fitness walking and the occasional hike with perhaps a mat pilates class to round things out.
I just put a rack on my new bike, so I hope to do even more commuting, and more errand riding, and I hope to win another stage of the tour de France.![]()

My goal is not to be last at any event(open water swim,mtb etc).
Keep riding as much as I can; try not to overdo it. Ride another century. Recover after a job layoff by finding a new job. Start freelancing for magazines again. Be happy and grateful for the wonderful life I have.
