I don't have a cycling tattoo, or any tattoo, I voted for career miles ridden because the next day it becomes worthless and you have to explain it every time someone asks what that means and you've ridden more miles than that and you need to get it changed but haven't be able to settle on a number.
Any of the first 3 fit somewhat into that category.
The more prudent thing is to use fantasy mileage ridden, like 457,812 because it will always look impressive and it will keep reminding you that you only need 400,000 more miles to get there.
