I have been extra lazy this month so I can attack 2010 with no excuses. My yearly mileage tally was lower than the previous 2 years and because of that I haven’t added the last months figures to the total. My PDA that was recording this had also not been used much and the battery went flat. Not sure now that I have a back up of all the data that may have been lost…

It was a busy year with 2 deaths in the family, a litter of puppies, 1st in the team cat for the 8 hour race in Tsukuba, 3rd in Hitachinaka, an emergency trip in an ambulance, a trip to Hakuba but injured, Hoodoo Gurus live, a big 8 rider skin peeling pile-up, another injury bearing trip to Hakuba… and then it all caught up to me and I have been sitting at home like a couch potato trying to re-motivate myself.

Let’s forget about all that.

I don’t know how 2010 can be any worse than 2009 so looking forward to it. My fitness however has gone downhill, my weight has gone up and I need to spend more time at work as well.

I’d like to ride 1000km a month or more in 2010.
As for New Year’s Resolutions I’m still thinking about it…. 1000km a month would be a good goal and if I can look after the dogs, get my work done, and pay all the bills…it may be the right choice.
We’ll know by the end of January.

Wishing you all a great 2010.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
