Managed to hit all my 2018 goals - final one being riding very lengthy and diverse trail to the Burma border from Kanchanburi to a place called Khao Pla Noi in Thailand. Epic is every sense of the word.

Next year see's the purchase of a KTM 350 EXC-f and a van. Intention is to do several Wales and Euro enduro weekend rides as often as is possible. Need to get my UK bike license also! biggrin

I've given up with motorcycle goals. Don't have kids. I'll do whatever i can get away with in 2019.
This but grown up kids. Mine is to persuade the wife that three bikes are best and get an adventure type jobbie so I can do some bigger miles comfortably, the R9T and old R1 are not high mileage suitable for my ageing body

I want to do more than 1000 miles in 2019.

Barely been on a bike over the last three years with major headfuk issues; hopefully starting to come out of the tunnel so you just never know.

If you're struggling, when the weather picks up, you're welcome to come out with me to borders, St. Mary's Loch etc. mate.

I usually just ride the Uganda Twin these days, so not a high pressure ride if you've health issues.

I know what it's like.

2019...….Dunno, not been feeling very bikey of late. The ZX10 has gone to a new home leaving a slot in the already packed garage, but its not going to be filled any time soon

I might just pull my finger out my ass and get the AR80 on the road. I may also increase the mileage on the Abarth from 1200 miles to 1500. We'll see.

The WR is probably going to do more mileage than all the others combined......subject to breakages

Thinking of emigrating so that could take priority over any biking plans. Otherwise:

- stop buying and selling so many bikes
- don’t crash (failed that in 2018)
- keep riding
