Single Play/Laps should be a per-ride option

I don’t really understand why Single Play/Laps is a global setting. It very much depends on the ride.

It would seem to me that on rides where it’s available (Loops), you ought to have a choice of “ride single play” vs “ride laps”, and not on the others. Whether I want to ride laps on a Loop is a function of that Loop’s mileage and also my physical state, time, etc. on a given day.

In fact, even on rides that are not Loops, it’s sometimes nice to mindlessly do the same ride over and over, which is a kind of “ride laps”; if you want to call it something else, “ride repeatedly”, that’s fine. But it seems like the idea of repetition should also be independent of Loop-iness. I realize that pretending that these are true laps may mess up data uploads (if you end your ride not where you begin and string it together, then it becomes physically unreal), so if it gets uploaded as N separate rides rather than one, that seems fine.
