That sounds great, except:
I understand if you are a racer then a good training plan is necessary but for me
riding around 150 miles a week keeps my weight down and my aerobic capacity in a good place. Staying fits makes everything else better.
Your "no plan" is, as you've described, actually a pretty explicit plan. And a pretty high volume one if you get to ride 7500 miles a year. A lot of people don't have the time to ride that much.
