Fat Lad's Goals

Despite the easy going attitude and the vague general drift that is my life; I do have some hopes and dreams. But what might surprise some of my regular readers to know is that I do have goals.

In no particular order.....

I want my own bike shop:
And it would be a damn good one too! My early employment days in the "Bike Shop" were the happiest (though lowest paid) days of my professional life. I'd swap big salary for fun any day.......

I'd like a crack at MTB Journalism:
I love writing, I love riding. How much harder can it be ;)

I would like to be a better rider:
Not faster. Better. Yes, I'd like to lose another stone to climb a little easier but I'd like to descend with more confidence and stop my mind working overtime calculating exactly what damage I'd do to myself this time.

I want to finish this:
TransRockies. A long term goal but one day... I'm going to do it.

I want to also have a crack at this:
La Ruta hell it can't be any muddier than the shite we're riding through at this time of year in blighty. Can it?

But most of all I want this:
Happy pedalling, good times and the continued support, love and understanding of Mrs Fat Lad. No one else is daft enough to have me.
