by **Ladybird** » Sat Nov 22, 2003 10:43 am

That'd be about 10,000 for me - everyone a joy :wink)

Sorry, but only 1500 in the UK and 1400 in Saudi Arabia. My excuse (Nay, reason) was that I was in a Wheel Chair until the end of January. then had a Zimmer Frame, then Crutches, then a walking stick until end of July. I found it difficult to man handle the

and realised the discretion was cheaper than

bodywork. UK mileage was done on a 1977 GL1000 Lead Wing. The GL has wide engine bars which stop it falling completely on its side.

Made for me then - as long as there's a fookin step to help me climb aboard :mrgreen:

I don't know exactly how many miles this year cuz the fookin thing kept going backward and forward to the fookin menders cuz they're a set o fookin useless tvats :roll)

Approximately 7k for me which is a bit disappointing, but I've averaged it out over the last two years

Over 8000 easily and the year aint over yet oh the joys of two wheels

is in bits at moment :mrgreen:

by **BirdAddict** » Sat Nov 22, 2003 5:15 pm

Just make sure you know where all the bits go on after...nothing worse than finding a couple of nuts and bolts lying spare and you've completed the job :banghead)

...or is that just me..??

Right then:

7,500 miles on the bb from Jan to May 17th when I had the off :bigcry:

5,800 miles on the 'loan bike' Triumph Trophy from end of May till beginning of August

5600 on the Busa from 1st September to now :roll)

So a grand total of 18,300 miles this year, down on my average of 20k a year.

by **fodie13** » Sat Nov 22, 2003 8:38 pm

I've done about 6500 this year and there is still a month left in the year :mrgreen:

Unfortunately most of those miles are to and form work :bigcry:

Didn't have very much time for the Saturday and Sunday fun rides. oh, and the Cops kept wanting to talk to me this year...that slowed me down :roll)

What the difference between UK miles and US miles?

In the US there are five McDonalds per mile but in the UK there are five pubs per mile. :wink)

I only accumulated a mere 4000 miles thus far, but anticipate another 500-700 before the year is over.

by **Trident** » Mon Nov 24, 2003 8:01 pm

8000 miles since April and there's still plenty of time left to get some more miles in.
