First fixed century
First 200mi+ in two days.
First 400mi in three days.
First forum rides.
First night rides.
Ride leader for a forum ride for the first time. (Thanks Skive!)
First time riding in real mountains (Pyrenees) + first time in the Lakes & Peaks.
New PBs for 10, 25 & 50mi.
First <6hr 100mi.
Riding aside, 2011 has seen me meet and get to know a load of awesome people who have supported me through some crappy life stuff and made it easier to keep a smile on my face. Not to mention grateful for the wisdom of the more experienced riders I've been out with. I've learned a lot this year. Thank you.
Finally, I apologise anybody who has had to suffer my company on long rides (particularly at night). I just can't help singing. Its what I do.
I regret my curt and drunken post earlier now.
