As with any decent goal, it was nice to reach the number, and good to do it ahead of plan. But in the final reckoning, it's only a number. All I really get out of it is a benchmark for the next test. So the question now is whether I will reach 3,000 miles.
The silly great spreadsheet where I record all this is predicting that, at the current rate, I will fall just short of 3,000 miles by the end of December. I must try to prove it wrong.
All together now, and no havering...
But I would ride 2,500 miles,
and I would ride 500 more,
just to be the man who rode 3,000 miles...."

I am very jealous of your spreadsheet...
Congratulations, good luck with the next 2500.
I averaged 100km per week last year, so a bit over 5200km in the calendar year.
Warning, the Xmas/NYE period is a riding killer, and that's in the southern hemisphere were it's nice and warm. I hope you're not trying to reach the goal in the cold (ie. far North of the equator).

5200 km = 3230 miles, so you are ahead of me. How are you doing this year? I suppose Southern England counts as far north of the equator, so I am trying to reach the goal in the cold (or rather damp at the moment). We'll see how it goes.
