Keeping gliding options open from 2015

I'd be grateful for any advice. I've spent ages reading the BGA website but I'm little wiser!

I'm in my mid fifties and stopped flying gliders about ten years ago. At that point I had a Silver C and a BI rating. I also had the BGA issued "Glider Pilot's Licence" for what it was worth!

I've always had it in mind to get back in the cockpit but I'm unlikely to do that before the new licence comes into effect in 2015.

What is the best course of action to keep my options open?

Obviously I realise I will need significant dual flying before going solo again but I would prefer to avoid having to retake exams etc.

Thanks.
