DudeAbides Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 i bought my Honda a year ago this month, Ive put down 11k in that year, with 4k of it being this year alone so far, but I ride it everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh man, oh man, that is insane. I thought my 785 miles a month was small. Edited May 21, 2009 by NinjaNick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

600ZZ4eb Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 i'm about 5-7k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustinsn3485 Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 I'm guessing in the 6-8K range...I almost always end up doing at least one 1000-1500 mile trip, lost of 200-300 mile trips, and then racking up a whole bunch of local miles throughout the year. And considering I started in March this year, it could be a 10K season... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zerocrash Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 I only did about 6k last year, which is a little less than average for me. (btw, hookers means you don't have a bike)What if you have a bike and use it to pick up hookers?? (and c'mon Mag, you know better than to not include the blow as well...);) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoblick Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 shit last month i did 1300 miles in 3 days lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2wheels>4 Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Depends, I ride for fun and transportation, but if I don't go anywhere fun I put a lot less miles on it just going to work...Been averaging around 1k per month. Put around 3K on my Zuki in a few months last year, including about 1K this winter. Bought the Yamaha in March, already put 3K on it and I have NOT been riding to work due to unemployment this year... LOL I'm gonna go with 10+K per year, hopefully that will go up to 20+ by next year. A nice ride out to the West coast should help that along....

I thought my 785 miles a month was small.Keep in mind, thatdude also has a boat, and us boaters need to split our time between boating and biking. When the weather's hot and sunny, boating usually wins out. With that said, I put about 2k on my bike last year, end of may through october.Thatdude, I know you live right by Chippewa Lake, do you ever travel to other lakes with your boat? I mainly hang out at West Branch State Park, I'm only 10 minutes from the ramp. Lately I've been having a hard time getting people to go boating, as most of my friends get older they seem to become more pussified about being beat up on the water.

that dude Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 tony- you are correct ....i spend most of my time down at the end of the street at the lake. i usually take it to salt fork for memorial and labor day weekend with the guys. this year everyone was doing different shit and popping out kids,so not this year. basically no she sits down on my boat lift for the season, no reason to go anywhere else. i can find flat water 80% of the time here. if i get my ass up early enpough(before 9) its usually glass and do some barefootin..im actually going out today if you wanna ride down and do some skiing!

Plus I majorly suck at skiing, I'd like to become a little better at wakeboarding though. I need to get some new bindings for my board, my ex-wife threw out my bindings when I left her. When we go out to the lake we usually pull the tubes around, I have 4 or 5 different ones that everyone likes. We should definitely try to get the boats together sometime this summer. Is Chippewa a private lake or do the have a public ramp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
