1 month to go

Only 29 days of the year left so how are my aims looking?
MTL - done, finally, not a bad ride.
100mile hilly road ride, nope not done any big road rides this year - ah well nevermind.
More rides with other people - Lots!
4500 miles - Done
2500 offroad miles - not looking great, I've only done 2245 so far, not helped by the pitiful (worst of the year) 81 miles in november. So I need to manage 255 this month, not likely to be honest, I need a big freeze (or just stop fricking raining!) so I can get some xc commutes in, otherwise it's some silly long weekend rides. Fingers crossed.

I keep meaning to get some off-road commutes in. However, I can't seem to motivate myself to get out of bed early enough to take the MTB.

For me it's not so much the motivation (only 15mins extra, more fun, less murder attempts) it's that I get to work so muddy when it's wet. I leave a big pile of mud outside the building when I scrape it off my bike and a (not much) smaller pile in my office when I get changed.
