Great thread and great post Oli :)
Like lots of other people on this thread this is my 1st year of "proper" riding despite the fact I come from a family of non-driving cyclists. Got my Charge Plug in Dec 2011 and joined here not long after. A mate of mine decided in an attempt to lose weight in Jan she was either going to cycle or walk everywhere and I followed suit. And kept on riding.
Thanks to this forum I've ridden further and longer than I ever have, planned rides, started track (which I love!), started riding fixed and made some awesome friends. Some of you rock.
Stand out rides for me was The London Classic, the furthest I'd cycled at the time and my birthday Brighton ride. Beautiul weather, lovely riding and awesome company. The ladies of this forum rule.
As for this year, I want to ride moar! Iwant to get cracking with track, do my 1st century fixed pref with the ladies of the forum and get a couple of tours in. I'd love my fitness levels to improve to te extent I could do TNRC too.
