What I see time and time again are folks who start out setting goals and then when they hit that point where gains come hard without major commitment they get frustrated and quit or they get bored because it is no longer fun. Clearly those of us with a life time of riding have not made it a job.
Didn't mean to offend - BTW:
No offense taken.
Yes, I guess we all have goals, and we are all so very different.
One of my goals is to have an activity with a minimum of goals.
That doesn't mean that I don't like challenging that hill, or seeing myself getting better or faster. It just means that I am glad when that happens, but I don't want to make that my emphasis of bicycling - the one place where I get away from goals! But others' mileage obviously varies!.
