First plan is to go for a 9 day ride around south island NZ with 5 other guys since the world did not end and to work out how to edit vid on my new ego vid camera, for those that know is windows live movie maker a good tool to edit
First, I wanna turn my underemployment into regular employment....
Second, get a specific 2-year certification I should have gotten 35 years ago.....
Third, take a bike trip (anywhere) with my brother since we didn't get to last year!

I don't think I will top my almost 33,000 miles ridden in 2012, but I plan to be spontaneous and take advantage of every opportunity to ride that I get. Hope to pick up the west coast, or north central states this year.
Along the lines of Davy F, I'm seriously crunching the #s to see if I can retire a year from now after what will be 34 years at age 60. I think it's doable and it's time to turn in my badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges....

I'm 53 now (since Dec 1st '12) and this time last year, I was making all sorts of plans for several trips abroad and at home believing that I would have been retired by the end of March 2012. That didn't work out due to being told lies by my employer, so to say the least, I'm not really making anything concrete for this year until I get the paperwork in my hand this time round. If everything works out, June will hopefully be the end of days for my working career and I can start on life part 2.

That looks like a great route, Gene. Only thing I could suggest for the return is to swing a little further west so you don't miss West Virginia and eastern Kentucky. Enjoy.
