New Years Resolutions?

[mrfacetious]

First off happy new year! have a great 2009!
I know it's not much but I reckon a 6 mile circuit over some valleys every day will go a long way for me. (I wouldn't mind going to bed and getting up at sensible hours either lol it's 0714 and i;m still awake).
So does anybody else made any resolutions? specifically but not restricted to your bikes!
Happy new year again!

Yes, I have a couple.

1. Diet, cycle more miles this year and do a lot more cross training in the gym.

2008 was my first year as a road cyclist, so I can only get better ( or so I keep telling myself!!! ).

2. Work up to a base level of cycling related fitness so that come the summer, I can enter a couple of sportives this year. Nothing serious, just a couple of gentle ones to break me in, so to speak.

Really fancy the idea of the Etape Caledonia but I dunno if there's still spaces left on it.

Non cycling related?. Get the Aprilia MoT'd and bring it out of hibernation so I can use it more this year than I did last year.

That's about it. Pretty boring really!!!.

wow all sounds ambitious lol reckon you can keep to it?
And that reminds me, I'm adding "Pass my bike test" to mine- my L plates sicken me!
What bike is it?

 

[RSV_Ecosse]

I think I will manage to stick to them m8, yeah!!.

As to the bike?. Clue is in my username here!!! :-

RSV Mille 1000.

Hardly rode it at all last year because of a load of different reasons. Bit of a big red paperweight to be honest. A lot of money to have sat tied up in a paperweight that doesn't get used nearly as much as it should do!!.

Mine are to cycle more. I told this to my mum and she asked what about my studies. I dont really have much time to cycle and do my school work but never mind

 

[roadiewill]

I wanna reach 3000 miles this year, already 65 miles on the way

 

[wlc1]

To increase mileage on my bike, do 5 century rides,commute as much as I can ( I sometimes dip out if the weather is crap), to compete in more Triathlons this year, gain promotion at work, move house, take my wife and kids on holiday somewhere nice and eat healthier.

Not much really

 

[RSV_Ecosse]

commute as much as I can ( I sometimes dip out if the weather is crap

See.....this is something I also did last year - poofed out of commutes on the bike some mornings as the weather was rubbish.

This year one of my other resolutions is to commute as much as poss, no matter what the weather is like.
