2019 - New Year, New Goals

It has been far too long since I've actually posted, there has been some changes in my life, new career path, winter has been filled with Curling and Hockey and Spinning, not so much biking outside.   Am I concerned going into 2019, not at all, I have pushed harder this off season to make sure I hit the ground running again, or I guess biking.
