For me, its to actually get out and ride. I found myself making excuses for not going out, which meant the only riding i did was pretty much my commute to work. I dont need any knew gear, I just need to make use of what i have got.

I am also taking the Garmin off my bike. Im fed up at looking at times and distances and this year, actually just want to ride. I have an Etrex for navigation purposes and like having maps too. :-bd

I have a few things in mind for 2015, but this may change. Had a lot going on recently etc etc.

So for now I'm gonna post on here I'm gonna do a photo a day for 2015. I did this in 2011 which was interesting. I've setup a seperate flickr page here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/zippyonline365/ for anyone who might be interested.

Might do a full time thread in the "Anyone Playing Out" thread if it is of any further interest on here?

Other things for 2015 include toying with Watching the start of the HTR550 and then go off and do the Cairngorm Loop so I can pre-qualify for the HTR. BB200 might be on the cards.

Anyway, dissertation to get finished, I'll start playing again after I hand that in at the end of Feb :-bd

...firstly get through fire season here in Adelaide. If you've seen it on the news, thats my backyard. About 10 miles away and still burning. Bit scary right now.

However, bike related...

2. SuperDirtonneur
3. bikes... CX/gravel grinder thing to replace the commuter, need to replace the MTB and would like to add a Fatbike.

and not bike...
4. Start Uni. Again...

Go to bed earlier!

Make some bits and pieces i've sketched up.

Spend more nights outside.

Make a list of places to go so when i need inspiration i can pick one.

Generally just do more with my time!

Langley - hope it doesn't get closer. We have friends out there and spent time there this summer. Stunning place.

Assisted my friend who teaches in a school there and took out some kids on a cycling trip, loved it

Just riding,
...ride my bike in new places
including see more of the UK by bike
Bivi a month

Events,
Peak ITT
Cairngorm Loop (perhaps not on the group start due to date clashes)
HT560

Life,
I didn't look after my health too well in 2014 and intend to do a little better in 2015 by making a few changes.
I also want to make a small change to my lifestyle, I work a lot and commute relatively far, I may look at changing this somehow as it really grates on me.
I'd also like to reduce reliance on the car, as they're to be money pits.
