    Sigh, on the day I was going to go on my first outdoor ride of the season, but it didn't happen.
    Basically, ride more than last year (about 300 miles more) and do more longer (50-100 mile) rides.
    Do a century. It doesn't have to be an organized one.
    Ride with Hirakukibou on a weekly basis again.
    Lead at least one more ride than the 2 I am doing this spring.
    And get to at least 5 Wednesday Wheeler rides.

    My two real goals for the year is to try some off-road riding, and ride more with people from work. Any more than that, I can't say, since my knee isn't fully cooperative yet, I have to finish my thesis before July, and there's a cross-country move in late July or early August.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    I'm struggling with this. Last year started with a bang when we did the White Rim Tour in 3 days, but we don't have anything big like that planned. In fact, we're even skipping the Horsey Hundred this year (at least I think we are), and that's the ride that normally gets me in good road biking shape. So, I'm at a bit of a loss. I think DH and I need to identify some event to motivate us; I just don't knwo what it will be.

    I definitely want to continue mountain biking, hopefully with a bit less anticipatory anxiety. I'd like to do a few more group/club rides myself, too. But beyond that, I dunno. I'm curious to see if any of the increased fitness I've gained over the winter will translate onto the bike. Frankly, I mostly just want to stick to my current routine and work biking into it rather than the other way around.
    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.
