Oh, the Possiblities: Brevet Schedule for 2010!



The Seattle International Randonneurs has posted our 2010 Brevet Schedule. Yippee!

My mind runs wild:

  • Will I do my first ever 600k in 2010?

  • Will I do an even longer brevet?
  • What will my wife (DartreDame when she posts here) do next year now that she is a member?
  • Will we succeed in recruiting our certain friend to join too? Or someone else?
  • Will we make new friends?
  • Will I ride faster and make shorter Controle stops next year?
  • What new weather challenges await?
  • Will I get an SR series in by June for PBP purposes?
  • What will my new designed-for-Randonneuring bicycle be like to ride (go here, for details)?
  • What critters will we see?
  • Any new weather phenomenon?
  • Will I begin to feel ready for PBP, and how will I start to panic, feeling unprepared?
  • What new insights will 2010 Brevets bring to my life?
  • Will I complete my first R-12?
  • How will volunteering for the first time change my views, if at all?

Where does your mind go?

What big randonneuring adventures in 2010?

How are you preparing now?
