How many miles...

How many miles do you average on your bike per year? Just curious how much everyone is riding.

Around 8 to 10 thousand. If I lived in sunnier climes, it would be higher.

How many miles...

This year I put on close to 5,000 so far. Missed out on a trip that would have put 2,000 more on. Last year I put close to 3,000 on. Not a lot of driving but work interferes with fun most of the summer. Can't wait till I retire or get fired.

Never kept track until I bought my Suzuki 3 tears ago.
Since then I've put on over 11000km(7000Miles)per year.
Got the Nomad a week ago and have 600 miles on her.

Hopefully the snow doesn't fly around here for awhile. :'(

With the Nomad I do around 7000 a year, but I don't get 100 miles from home very often. I pack the streets with the 800 and never leave town, so it's around 1500 miles. I have two cars and a Jeep that needs driven too.

Lucille is a commuter-scooter as well as being a mental health provider. We've logged 12000 miles together in 13 months. With the national rally in Custer I expect my 09 mileage to be significantly higher that '08's
