Angus, that's a pretty good list of goals and accomplished items.

For myself, I feel I rode a tad less this year but still had a ton of

the past 3 yrs has been wrapped up in randonneuring. My goals for next
year:

1. Finish another super randonneur series and finish each brevet a
little faster.
2. A sub-14hr 300k.
3. Do either a 1000k and/or Fleche.
4. More S36Os.
5. At least one multi-day bike tour.
6. Continue to learn how to work on my bike.
7. Read more.

My main winter goal was to sell my Rambouillet which isn't much of a
goal but it's tough for me to part with stuff and even tougher to
actually deal with selling stuff. I have a bunch of bike parts I need
to sort through and sell. I also need to figure out what I'm gonna
replace the Rambouillet with.

Congrats on joining RUSA. If you are near Springfield, MO, ride our 200K 
brevet on March 20. I run a 200K and 300K through the St. Louis region. 
More info here: http://www.rognstads.com/brevets/ If you cannot make the 
brevet, we have several permanent routes. Good luck in 2011.

completely turned over my stable, and developed a vision of what my
cycling life is hopefully going to shape up to be in the next decade
or 3.  My 2010 cycling highlights were the 2 S24O's I did (plus all
the buying stuff).  I just recently signed up for RUSA and am going to
try randonneuring for the first time.  My 2011 cycling goals include:

1.  Do my first 200k brevet
2.  Do another 200k brevet
3.  Do a 200k brevet in under 10 hours
4.  Do a 300k brevet
5.  Set up the garage as a proper workshop
6.  4 S24Os
7.  Ride more with the wife and kids
8.  Ride to work at least once a week
9.  Ride to and from work at least once a month
10.  Do one overnight night ride

Last Year there was a thread on Goals for 2010:

Here is what I submitted:

1.  Fix my back (leg pain)...again.
2.  Ride either the Katy Trail or C&O Canal self supported.
3.  Keep riding to work at least once each week.
4.  Map a mixed terain ride starting from my front door.
5.  Do more S24Os.
6.  Continue searching out other East Texas riding areas (I'm still
kinda new here).
7.  Ride the Mineral Wells Rail Trail, out and back, on the Quickbeam,
fixed.
8.  Stop trying to make old French bike parts work...they don't.
9.  Support RBW and my LBS.
10.  Spend more time in the garage.

I think I did a good job on 1, 3 (sort of), 8, 9 and 10.

For 2011:
1.  Spend more time in the garage.
2.  Ride the Katy Trail.
3.  Three to four rides/week, once of them to work.
4.  Ride the Mineral Wells Rail Trail, out and back, on the Quickbeam,
fixed.
5.  Map a mixed terrain (spelled correctly this time) ride starting
from my front door.
6.  Continue searching out other East Texas riding areas.
7.  Continue to support RBW and my LBS.
8.  Finish that DIY LED light I started.
9.  Solve the Atlantis BB "clunk"
10.  Eliminate the Rambouillet "gear noise"

Happy New Year!
