This year i want to do some good sized gap jumps, bigger drops, travel to at least one trail center every 4-6 weeks, enter some xc races and get my average speed up on the road to 22mph.

I also plan on not buying much else bike wise until something breaks.(this will be the hardest one to achieve)

More training with Jedi so i can work on jumping further more consistently.
Get to the stage of fitness and skill to run the whole 4x at chicksands at a good pace and clearing all the jumps. This is going pretty well so far but it is quite physically taxing at the mo.
Learn to manual pump over bumps.
ride Dirt Jumps on my hardtail i'm building.
build the aforementioned hardtail !
More Away days
hit the 30ft+ marker on the sender at the bottom of S2A

Ride more. Crash less. Spend less time injured. Maybe another visit to tony Jedi to overcome some peripheral fears, fingers crossed he can convince me 'these are not the droids you are looking for'.. :D
Revisit some trail centres to get my flow on..

Riding wise.... Any goals i have left, which are few, are pretty un-achievable now, getting a tad to old to go riding Utah, etc & cant risk the injury like i used to... lol.
Just going to settle down and get my teeth into some Enduro events, and just carry on riding for the sheer pleasure of it.... :)

Now being totally serious:


1) Get a drivers license

2) Get a cheap car to enable me to take bike whenever I want to ride.

I guess mine would be to jump higher, further with more confidence for the bigger stuff.

Also up for the once a month away-day-good spot visits.

**edit** just thought, something i have to do is lay my bike flat whilst doing a table top air, just like i used to do back in the days.
