I think my 2010 goal is to look at a picture of "girthmore" and not get queasy.

Not sure if it's on my list to do this year - but my wife informed me that if I attempt it again she wants to be there with a camera.

Main solid target is to get a reasonable position in a 550km race I've entered myself for in wales. I'm not sure what I should aim for, top half or better or worse. I'll see what I feel like closer to the time.

I want to go over to the welsh DH and trail centres more as well.

OK - tough old guy - I just rode the Sunday beacon course - pretty tight with the tape up. Let's see who makes it down faster (without a broken collerbone)

What are your favorite local MTB-riding areas, Steve? Maybe we'll get to do some rides together, those are sort of my needs as well. Oh, btw mechBgon = Tom M.

Most of my off roading is at Riverside since it's close to where I live. There is also some state land out here that's not to bad to ride on as long as the shooters aren't out. Are you the same Tom on the SRV web site? I've done a few of road rides with them these past weeks. Let me know if you want get a ride in together.

My goal is to not get all busted up again. Scrapes, cuts and bruises are fine.
