In 2005 I decided to see what I was capable of so I signed up for a century before the MS 150 and did the century route on the MS ride. I managed to complete both but I pulled a hamstring on the way back and it took me off the bike for a year and a half. In late 2006 with my 50th birthday approaching, I wanted to do something really special so I quit my 31 year smoking habit and started training for RAGBRAI which would be the challenge of my life. I had no idea at the time where that was going to lead and I still don't but the miles are really wracking up fast. Final position in 2007 - 219 - top 2.9% with 7632 total miles. Goals for 2008: 8000 miles total - Total for the year 10800+ miles 1 century per month - Total - 50 Centuries 1 200k brevet per month = RUSA R12 medal - Accomplished 100 days commuting to work on the bike - Total 118 12 weeks without driving the car or 1 week a month. - Missed this one. Finished in the top 8/10 of 1% of riders. Goals for 2009 - Complete a full randonneurs series. Have fun.
