Goodbye 2012; And Good Riddance
by Bryan         Biking to Live
2012 had both ups and down. Well, probably more downs than ups (kinda like the stock market). Goals were missed, miles weren’t ridden, and weight wasn’t lost. I’m really starting to sound like a broken record aren’t I?
I had a pretty decent year in 2011 and that lead me to create some pretty big goals for 2012. You can read about my 2012 goals here. I can say that I was 100%…

@TexasMTBtrails it's taking away liberty and freedom from cyclists, folks endorsing these laws apparently don't support those ideals. 😉
