Maybe this won't catch on but I thought it would be cool to see what others are working towards. I like reading the success stories from others as they hit there goals.

Here is mine: I have drove this a lot. Its part of my camping and hunting grounds. Now I want to bike it. My end goal is to make it to the end with food and camping gear for one night then come back the next day.
It shouldn't be too hard right, after all, its only 36.46 miles (make sure to click the elevation button)

Very nice. I bet you are looking forward to the downhills!

My goal is Chester County, PA, to Orange County, CA - about 3K miles.

As for impressing anyone, let alone "skinny roadie types", the only person I need to impress is myself.
