I remember a time many years ago when I rode every New Years Day regardless of weather to prove a point to my fair weather riding friends who spent more time polishing their chrome than riding. Now it seems like each winter my long distance riding friends and I spend more time talking about trips we want to take but end up actually riding less each year. Maybe our priorities have changed but weather and other obligations always seem to pop up to disrupt planned trips. I end up doing more solo spur of the moment riding and putting less miles on the bike than the year before. Am I done or just not hard core enough?
