Last year my main cycling goal was to do 5,000 miles. Which I am pleased to say I did. This year I have set myself lots of smaller goals.
Here is a list of them. I am sure this list will just grow and grow.
- Cycle at least 4,500 miles this year.
- Do at least two 100 mile bike rides.
- Aim for a 125 mile one.
- Set off on a cycle every hour between 9am and 11pm.
- Beat every months longest cycle, that I set last year.
- Do the Rest and Be Thankful road (A83) in Scotland.
If you have set any cycling goals this year, I would love to hear about them. Add your comments to this post PLEASE :).
I’ve just signed up to do the London to Brighton ride this year. Means I’m going to have to get out on the bike this year. I can’t wait. I wish I could do what you do, but start with little steps. I know you’ll reach your goal.
Good on you for doing the London to Brighton to cycle. Would love to do that one day. Have you set-up a http://www.justgiving.com/ page?
Some really nice goals there G and I hope you achieve them all, if not others you think of!
For me, I have set these goals:
Cycle 3,500 miles this year
Do 125 miles in under 12 hours
Do 6 rides of between 40 miles and 70 miles
Do a regular circuit as often as possible and keep trying to better the timing on each.
Keep improving my average speeds [in fact its up from 10.2mph to 11.8mph in six months]
Find other routes and places to cycle to rather than keep doing the same ones that I know.
Smash my all time fastest speed of 41.2mph
I think that should do… plenty to keep me occupied! I’ll keep you updated… 😉 Good Luck G!
Good luck!!! x
My goals are:
1. To buy a bike. I’m sorry to say I’m not a cyclist but the comments I read on here have made me feel enthusiastic about getting one.
2. To set myself realistic targets – have a destination in mind and to build up gradually. I also hope it will help me to stay fit and healthy.
I don’t do enough exercise – and I hate jogging.
Goal one is get a bike is very good start. You need to add getting cycling gear to that list.
I hate jogging 2. Only time I jog or run is when crossing the road and worried I am about to get ran over.
