What's your annual mileage?
« on: March 20, 2017, 01:44:44 PM »
Just got the bike inspected...did 5,355 miles last year.  5,012 the year before.  That's way down from prior years. :bikerider:

That last two years have been way down.  Weather and just plain ole other crap getting in the way.  I think last year I put in barely 4000 miles and the year before that I put somewhere like 12,000 miles.  granted 5600 miles was one trip but still....way down.

My father in law living with us has taken Libby out of the ride...except for Bandera.  I've already let her know..that when retirement comes.  The miles will be coming back.

This past year has been almost nothing. I don't even have callusis on my dark side anymore. Sure hopes that changes before long!   :c :c

Just under 3 years on the current bike and at 25K so that is just a bit over 8000 average.

When I was working, I put 12-15K miles on my bike. Last year, I think I put 12-15 miles on it.

Of Course it's dirty. It's hard to clean when the tires keep moving.
