I started the year with a 30 miles ride on the 1st of January and established some goals for 2005:
1) ride a century (my first).
2) climb Mt.Diablo (SF East Bay).

So far I have ridden 3 centuries: the first with 5,000ft of climbing in March, the second with 8,000ft in May, and the last and most memorable with 10,000ft in October.
Mt. Diablo (3,200ft in 13 miles) is still waiting. May be in December, who knows!
