Only about 5k miles. A new kid will reduce riding time.

I haven't kept track, but I'm willing to bet I've put less than 200 miles on the bike this year, primarily since I live so close to work (like, walking distance) that there's no point in riding the bike to the office. And then with kids and school (about to start my 4th year.. assignments are getting tougher and more time intensive.. but hopefully should finish my BFA by this time next year), most of my free time is shot.

How much?



For me I did about 5k. I was all set to do my desired 8k-10k but hitting a deer with the bike and breaking my hand kinda derailed that.

780 on the dirtbikes. Considering what we ride on a given weekend (600ft elevation change single track woods) that's quite a bit

only 950 on the road....but that's because I just got the street bike in October, and MOST of November was rain

I put 2k on the CBR before I sold it, the klr has another 2500 this year and I put just over 3k on the Harley


Archen, I'm with you, I live 2 miles from work so the only time I ride the bike is when I plan to ride right after. Plus working on my 4th year college work takes a lot of time
