The way my last 16 months have gone ... I'm afraid to make goals anymore. Plans and goals are very fragile and tenuous things when life continuously tramples all over you. I consider myself fortunate every time I can actually get out and ride.


That said, I'm at about 2400 km so far this year, and I've done a 200K brevet (on my beautiful Machak), and a 300K brevet (on Frankenbike, after Machak was stolen). Those are the first brevets I've ridden since 2008, so maybe I'm getting back into it again.
