Cycling goals this year
Last year I think I rode ~5000km and 82,000 vert meters. I rode through a lot of really beautiful places, even if I didn't do very many of the "prestige" cols (except Galibier, and that was from the easier side). I had a few modest goals this year on the local cols: placette in under 20, mont saint-martin in under 30, Narbonne in under 20. These were all just barely met. This year: Proveysieux in under 20, which will require a lot of work, Montaud in under 30 (ditto) and try to improve my endurance and do more than 100k vert meters. Those are the nerdy, numbers goals. The more important goals are to do more beautiful rides, and finally ride up Ventoux and the Alpe D'huez. I'd also like to do the Finestre.
Climbing wise, the usual: do more beautiful climbs on immaculate rock. I have some long standing goals like Rackham le Rouget and Hirondelle des Fauborgs, and the big "M", but nothing pressing.
here's hoping you meet your sporting goals this year as well!
