My biggest goal (after my
unplanned non-touring 2004 is to work towards returning to what I consider good shape for touring by early spring, and then to wander off on a couple of short trips on my bike. While I'd love to take an extended trip this year, I'm limited to 3 weeks of vacation. Right now I'm thinking of 2 to 3 1-week trips (to spread out my vacation time). It's very possible that I'll use some of my unused 2004 plans - a short trip to Nova Scotia, and a week in the Canadian Rockies, riding from Jasper to Banff and then on to Calgary to catch a flight home - but it's also possible that I'll dream up something very different over the winter.
