Not at all off-topic. The point of the poll / my post is not to elicit new/higher mileage goals, but maybe (if anything) to encourage some of us to be well rounded.

There are all kinds of goals on this forum, which range from:

- Getting back on the bike after years of not-riding.
- Riding 20 miles the first time after a medical setback
- Riding a metric century, Imperial century, or double century
- Racing at a highly competitive level

Mine evolved into "be ready to ride a century on any day," and that seems to fit me pretty well, and I think it gives me time to do other stuff as well.
