Exactly 9 days prior to my 1 year bike owning anniversary

I had to stop mid corner to take a photo~!!

Congrats, that's quite a milestone.  And a pretty good total for 1 year.
Now you need to break that record next year.

In Wisconsin?  Man, I was gonna blame the weather in NY for why I only get about 3-4K per year, but that's hard core.  (Well, I also blame working too much.)

at first i thought you were talking about RPM 

you also have a pony on your ignition key? 

WooooHoooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats, MM!!!! 

Very nice work! My goal was to hit 5K by today, 1 year after I got my GS. I would have had it if not for this shitty weather. I'm stuck at 4,940 as of yesterday. D'oh!

But that's nothing compared to your 10K. Nice!

I hit 30K last Friday - which doesn't include the 6,420 miles that were on the original gauge when I hit the cow.... 



Gee - I'm only averaging 6,000 miles a year.    And the last couple years have only been about HALF that.

Kerry...I think we need to find the thread where you tell that story and resurrect it, so all the new members can read it. 

Yeah becuase I really wanna know how you managed to not die after hitting a COW!!!

WooooooHoooo!!!!! Congrats!!!  But you need to ride more! GS 50-states group ride!? Who's in!? 

+1 on resurrecting the cow thread! 

I've only got 20K on my '00 that I bought new in '01.  I didn't ride it AT ALL for the first 2.5 yrs though, then I wised up and saved myself money by parking the truck.




So really, it's the last 3 yrs only that I've been riding, and then it's ~6.3K/year, which isn't too bad.

I've had my bike 10 months. It was down and out for 2 months due to repairs and vacations (1st when the bike got knocked over it was in the shop for a month while I dealt with the guy's insurance; 1nd was in December after the lowside, I put off fixing it for 2 weeks, then went on vacation for 2 weeks). So riding for 8 months, I've put 8000 miles on it. So 12,000 miles/year average thus far.
