Plan for 2011

The plan for 2011 is to do PBP in August. In order to qualify for that you need to do a Super Randonneur series (200, 300, 400, 600). And of course I'll fit in as many FNRttCs as I can.

A few things stand out:

• introducing friends to FNRttC to Southend,
• maybe a FNRttC from Manchester extended into a ride to York
• or maybe the Valley of the Rocks 200 in Devon
• BCM is always a highlight
• a new 600 in the Invicta or Wessex
• FNRttC to Whitstable, but I might not be able to do it
• FNRttC to Newhaven and home, will it be as good as last year?
• PBP

Plan for 2010

The plan for 2010 is to attempt a Randonneur Round the Year (200 for 12 consecutive months) and to do another Super Randonneur series (200, 300, 400, 600).

The RRtY was my original and only plan for 2010. The SR came only because, for some bizarre reason, I want to do the Bryan Chapman 600 again. For that you need to build up by cycling a 300 and a 400. I'm on the same trajectory as the Fabulous Faccombe Four, so it can't be helped :). Then the second half of the year is when the FNRttC comes into play. One of the rides I am most looking forward to, is the FNRttC to Dieppe. The plan is stop over in Le Treport and the next day, cycle to my parent's place in Rumbeke (Belgium).
