Resolve to: Ride on 1/1/11

Many bicyclists resolve to ride a certain number of days or miles in the coming year -- a great idea to track your progress or reach new goals. If this resolution is on your list, imagine the sense of accomplishment you'll feel if you log that first day or mile on 1/1/11 -- the very first day of the year!

Our suggestion? Ride with a bunch of other crazy folks on the ABCDEFGHIJ! Ride on New Year's Day! It's fun. It's free. It's got something for everyone -- 3, 12, and 24 mile routes -- but not a lot of anything else (no SAG, no rest stops, no first aid). And the weather forecast is actually looking pretty decent this year. Just show up at the Medina Public Square to depart at noon.
