With looming trips away and a surgery, “pigs might fly” was my considered assessment at the start of the year of again ticking off a 10/150. 10,000km is relatively easy, however the climbing is always the challenge. And yet mid year I found myself only 7,000m behind… and now here we are. There was even a KFC <20 in there - a ship I had a nagging fear might have sailed (it has certainly weighed anchor). 
2025 cycling has been characterised by several themes. There has been the sadness of losing Hugh Brown and Scott Quayle. Conversely the generosity, warmth and humour of our extended cycling community has been powerfully evident. Throughout the year whenever people needed practical help, cheering up, or even taken down a peg or 2 WhatsApp nearly melted with the volume of offers to step in. 
While it is easy to focus on the #s we associate with cycling - Vo2s, PBs, speeds, and all the rest, particularly at this time of year the overwhelming sense is of appreciation and blessing. Appreciation for the friends and location we share that makes cycling such a pleasure. And blessed for the fitness, absence of crashes and quality of life that has come with it. 
Thanks all, for your part.
