I'm not a Resolutionist. To be fair, I've been contemplating getting back on the horse for a while now. Then today I found that this blog hit the Bicycle Alliance Blog List. What does that mean to me? That this little piece of blogosphere still has a flickering light...and that I may just need to give it a nice whack to make it burn strong again.
Truth is, I spent the last few years running like crazy. I put the blog aside and I largely put cycling aside.
My abscence was due to a long courtship with the elusive and wiley marathon. Each year I put more time into it in attempt to meet my original goal: 4 hours. In 2012 I did it. So I'm done. I've run less than 10 times since. I still like running, and I'll still run. But no more marathons. It's not my thing.
Similarly, I have realized I'm not a bicycle advocate. I'm no longer a daily cycling commuter, but I am still a commuter. I like cycling, and I like talking about it, but I'm not here to make statements. Just to rant now and again and hopefully inspire others to share.
I've got a few ideas about some rides and such that I want to accomplish this year. With my weekends back from that darn marathon, I'll have plenty of time to ride. Maybe even race. We'll see.
Now where's that bike pump...
