Did you set goals for last year? Do you have goals for next year?

I had hoped to ride 4000 miles this year. Due to injuries, I didn't quite make it, but with one more possible ride on the 31st, I will reach between 3760 and 3780. That's still an "A" by percentage, so I'm pretty happy. My other big goal was to ride the 109 mile distance in El Tour de Tucson, but that didn't happen due to the hip issues this fall. I did log over 75,000 feet of elevation gain, including a ride up Mt. St. Helens, and 3 very cool rides in Ireland: around the Dingle Peninsula and two rides in County Clare near Doolin and Kilfenora.

New goals? Mainly, I want to keep having fun on my bike, it makes me smile and is helping me maintain my weight at a level proportionate to my height for the first time in my adult life (that would be several decades!). It also has given me and the DH a lot of wonderful time together, and has been very positive for our relationship. I would like to set my mileage goal for 4000 again for next year, but it will all depend on whether the hip, legs and back will cooperate. The actual miles aren't nearly as important as the rest of the stuff

What about you?
