+1. Great day today. Got in a little ride for a couple of hours,..came home to have my kids and grandsons over...A regular Sunday with my favorite people.
M-F, we're working,..can't ride the bike to work because I work at home.
In short, we put on just 3000 per year..we enjoy each mile and our life with family. Not a 'real' biker in the eyes of some I suppose.Then again, I don't live for the approval of others.

Re: how many miles do you ride

I just started riding in June of 2009. Bought my Heritage new and put 5000 miles on it by June 2010 (and was darn proud of it!!!!). In August of 2011, I had racked up another 10,000. We don't ride much during Nov. to Dec. because the deer are rampant here then, even during the day.

I have just over 10K in two years, including being out of commission for 6 months because of a left-turning, texting cager.

Re: how many miles do you ride

I'm in the same boat as R. Lewis and others who family obligations I ride when ever I can. Some are short hops some are longer. With that said I have 12,000 in 2 years.

Re: how many miles do you ride

Daily rider here. 400 to 500 miles a week, plus whatever I can talk the missus into on the weekends. Love my bike. Some days its the only reason I go to work, so it's probably saving my job!

I have been averaging 12 to 15K the last 3 years. Short of that so far this season.

Just bought my Dyna about 5 weeks ago and have put approximately 1200 miles on it so far. Wish I had put more.
