I was just re-reading this thread because I will be starting a 2021 "resolution" thread in the next week or so.
I found this quote in Post #2 (If he had only known.....)

Due to the medical issues I have had in 2019 ( and continue to battle) which forced me to miss 53 days of riding (vs the 12 snow/ice related days missed and the 3 rain related days missed) and causing me to miss meeting my yearly goal of 300 days riding per year in 2019, I have decided for the first time in many, many years not to set any goals, either for days ridden or mileage for 2020. Further I am not going to plan any trips or rallies at this time.
If I feel good enough to ride on any given day, I will ride. Distance doesnt matter. I will ride for as long as I feel like riding. If I feel good enough to head out on a trip, I will. If I am able to make the east coast rally, I will be there ( haven't missed one yet). Same goes for my annual Men's Fall Trip I take with family members. If I feel up to it, I'm going. It's all going to be very last minute decisions.
I've had a goal for many years to ride until I am 70. That will be in 157 days from now, so I do hope to meet that one, but whether I ride 300 days or 150 days, or whether I ride 20,000 miles or 10,000 miles in 2020, I'm just not going to worry about it. I plan on trying to get/be as healthy as I can, and let the days, the miles, and the trips take care of themselves.
