20,000!

[daneilah]

Was off work this week.  Rode about 1,000 km going to Horseshoe Valley for a couple of nights and then the cottage to visit my Dad.  My '04 GS now has over 20,000 km on it (15,000 of those are mine!)

Got to try out the new Airhawk seat cushion.  Pretty impressed.  Yesterday, after 280 km in the saddle, I felt like I could keep going.  That's with my back and elbow currently on the fritz.

I don't know what the field of blue stuff is, but I thought it was cool.

Bluebonnets possibly?

Good job on hittin' 20k! Even better on the 15k under your belt!

For our non-metric partners:

20,000 km = 12,427.4 mi
15,000 km = 9,320.6 mi

20k... isn't that "cotton"?

Here's a toast to your whopping 20km of fun!  That is quite an achievement; I hope to follow you (in a few years, at my rate).

Well done in deed.  Like the luggage.  Goes well with the bike.  Who says a GS500 can't go touring.

That is a fine looking machine with some exellent luggage! I need to "checkout" that Airhawk seat cushion. I have been looking for a raccoon fur with head attached but they are few and far between. Don't ever let anyone tell you that you can't tour on a GS500. Believe me people have toured on some unbelievable bikes (and scooters). Truly you have a nice machine.
