Here we go then. No wishy washy "I'd love to do a sportiv" or "enter a race". Thats rubbish make them quantifiable - here are mine

1. Make 2nd Cat again

2. Beat 23min in a 10tt on my road bike
3. Ensure anyone I coach makes their goals
4. Win at palace again
5. FT 320 by summer :wink:

1) SE SPOCO
2) SCCU BAR
3) 10 PB
4) 25 PB
5) 50 PB
6) 100 PB

Enough initials for you

.
SE SPOCO = South East Sporting Courses TT series.
SCCU BAR = Southern Counties Cycling Union Best All Rounder - 10, 25, 50, 100 mile TTs.
5 & 6 = Guaranteed if I do 2 as I've never done a 50 or 100.

Will try and get to Palace as much as possible but no targets as I just like racing there.

Thought this was another thread about football.

My last years goals were a bit ambitious and the closest I got was the 12 hour (a PB with 237 miles - just 3 short), but with a dismal 100, and no seemingly easy days for 50 (2.2 :cry:

/100 4.32

) TT's didn't go well.

I just managed to qualify for a BBAR Certificate

at 22.085 mph.

I want to get under 2 hours again for a 50, and I reckon I can push my pb 100 close (4:10), along with that carrot of 240+ in the 12.

To make it interesting, I aim to ride the National Championships at 10,25,50,100 and 12 hours and make them my qualifying rides for the BBAR, and push the average up to 23mph.

I will also ride as many SCCU events as possible to help keep the Rawson Shield where it belongs (and get a few miles in :wink:

).

I will be targetting a few more road races this year to improve on the measely 8 points I got this

, and be doing the Thursday evening handicaps - target = 39. :wink:

And in my spare time, I'll put in a few long club rides.

Andrew mentioned Palace - it really is a football thread

Come on then......let's 'ave it.

1 - PB in a 10 (again)
2 - PB in a 25 (again)
3 - PB in a 50 (again)
4 - PB in a 100 (again)
5 - SCCU BAR (again)
6 - PB in a 12hr :shock:

7 - Equal my PB of helping/marshalling at least four events (again)
8 - PB on the Bec CC Hill Climb (Again! Have I learnt nothing this year?)
9 - Keep the Yellow, Black & White flying over The Rawson Shield (team effort y'all)

He he, truth be told numbers 3,4,5 & 8 were all 1st time events for me this year so improvement on those is a MUST.

1. To train
2. To stop being lazy
3. To improve my climbing (more)
4. Go back to descending the way I was before my crash (dare devil style :twisted:

)
5. To get into the 20 mph by the end of 2008 (sorry Stu, training group a tad optimistic)

by **Grahame** » Mon Oct 29, 2007 10:32 pm

1 Lose a stone and a half or so :oops:

2 Have another summer of mountainbike guiding fun in Colorado (actually, this one's pretty much arranged already

)

3 Have a go with the 20s club run.

4 If 3 doesn't kill me, set off from Coulsden with the training group and see if I can last to at least the bottom of the steps.

5 Last to at least the 1st Prime in the Addiscombe A race that I expect to be forced (kicking and screaming) into next year.

6 Keep up with the front group on the church climb after leading the club run along the flat back from the cafe.

7 (And above all) continue to enjoy my cycling.
