I would revise my goal, as I did last year when I found myself rolling
over 10,000 in the middle of a ride last November.   I figured I'd just
go to the end of the year, see how high it got; and as it turned out,
when I reached 11,111 I was about 2 miles from the end of the ride on
Dec 31.  That seemed like a round enough number for me, so I shut off
the computer.

But that's not why I record mileage anyway.  I started tracking
maintenance after a couple of post-retirement high mileage years, when I
realized with six bikes I ride regularly, I had totally lost track of
when I'd replaced chains, cassettes and tires.  Now I have a much better
idea how long such items last, and had the facts to back up my feeling
that the Challenge Parigi-Roubaix flatted three times more often than
the Grand Bois Cypres for me.
