2014 Miles

[Ed Miller]

Sort of a tradition here.  I have to confess I haven't checked mine yet on the R65, though I know I'm at about 99,500 total.  When I remember to look it up I'll post mine.

Usually Bob rides the most.  I don't know how he does it in the heat.

In 2014 I rode the bike on 235 days. That's a record for me but will get no where near Bobs tally. My trips were mostly short commutes with some longer runs in the summer so mileage total was only 2246 miles.

2015 may be different as I've recently hit 60 years old and made the decision to wind down work a little. This is my first week of 3 day working and I'm already done till next Monday. 3 days on 4 days off has a nice ring to it

Sad to say, on the R65 zero miles this year.  It was laid up all season, but will be good to go in 2015.

On the bright side, approximately 9,000 miles this year on the K1300S.   Not to shabby considering that I only had 2 weeks vacation to ride it, and I am somewhat limited in using it to commute to work, and that the riding season is generally from May through October with only a few good days outside that window.  

2015 will be interesting to see how the mileage is split between the two bikes.

600 miles on annual trip up Dalton Hiway to yukon river crossing and back. i still love the R65. Rode the other bikes a total 23500 miles April 15 to Nov 5 this year . . . my second year in retirement (8->)  Life is good.

All on the R65 as my Triumph is apart.  Too much down time on the R65, too.  I don't ride that often but my stupid commute is a hundred miles.  I'm jealous of Barry.

I found my R656 in a barn in July, spent a month getting it road ready and put 2,610 miles on it by the end of the year.

That's a lot of riding.  I bet after I retire my mileage will go down.  At least I tend to stay home now on my days off.  Living in the woods and all that.

Just a touch over 7K for me, with the majority being commuting miles.

Got a new job in the beginning of December and now live 3 miles from work instead of 20.  The commute is all city streets now and I drive through the morning traffic of 4 sizable schools...  I think 2015 miles will be reduced to pleasure riding.

A big fat zero for me

2014 was without a doubt a year to forget.

I am ever hopeful this will be the year, everything is ready to go, all looking nice, repainted, polished etc etc, just need to put it all back together again...

Bummer, Chris.  But that's why I like having two motorcycles.

No miles (or kilometres) for a couple of years. Its still in pieces while I try to recover from my long term illness. Doing small things towards finishing the rebuild but not getting much done. I'm looking at 2016 sometime to being back on the road again. And then I'll be touring around Australia visiting all my Facebook friends.

No miles on the R65 as most of it was still in apart in boxes, but I did clock up 9500 on the R1200r  between picking her up from the dealers in April (Vines Motorrad in Guildford- bloody nice place, good coffee, good staff and a couple of nice old Beemer's in the foyer) and the end of November when the weather chased the bike into the shed.
