All of the above except the Canam bit. Insert instead to get rid of the extra weight that of a small boy from my person!
Might be easier to cut a leg off or some other double up like an arm or something.

have the back paddock slashed and mow in my very own vmx practice track

same as rusty and brad re the fitness thing, hence the mountain bike I've ridden every morning for the last week

oh, and spend more time with the wife and kids, put in internal stairs, extend the shed, finish the mainline, finish the landscaping, finish the YZ, repaint the Holden, etc...  ;D

Ditto,with fitness but drop some kilos so my poor 125s dont have as much lard to punt around.Try to improve my riding skills so Im not last so often.Stop buying stuff on impulse,thinking its what I want but knowing it isnt really,and then spending $$$ to rectify the problems.Decide on the bike that I really DO want,find a great example and get it in time for cd6.Put something back into the club by getting some courses under the belt and helping on race days etc.

*Lose another 40kg.
*continue with the fitness campaign.
*Swim 2k without a rest.
*finish my Cheney and Boyd and Stellings Suzuki.
*Rebuild my cruiser bicycle and the Marin downhill bike.
*Travel to Mid Ohio or the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
*Spend more time with positive people and less with the negative.
*Drink only quality beer, fine wine and good coffee. Life's too short for VB,wine casks and instant coffee.
*Make a start on the Maico Metisse and don't procrastinate so much on that and other projects.
*Do more country drives in the Jag with my luvvy.
*Get the Ducati set up for some latte cruises and Kurrajong Mountain knee scrapes.
*Make some progress on the book.
*Try and avoid arguing the point with tossers. It ain't worth the effort.
*Learn more about things that mean something to me. You're never too old to learn.

Strangely enough, my new years resolutions are almost identical to Rusty's (even including the Can Am one). Maybe not the one about winning every race that I enter , because I don't want to get my possibilities mixed up with my capabilities  :D . Just as long as I am having fun , that is all that matters . But I suppose the main thing I want to do this year is ride more . This may then help some of the other resolutions such as the fitness & the enthusiasm to get working at putting more bikes back together .

 My new year resolutions are.
Start by walking a lot more, getting fit for the Vintage nationals, Slow down on selling my bikes and apply my energy into racing.
Start promoting vintage racing a lot more, rules and regulations need to be reviewed. Stop taking things personal
Find the bikes that l want to race and show which l have been looking for, for so many years. and that is a Kawasaki F21M 250. Kawasaki kx 125 A.
Help build up the numbers in pre 65 classes , 125 classes and bucket class racing
Would like to start up my old Vintage Magazine ???
Win some races at the national meeting and have a lot of fun. with my mates.
