It's a rhetorical question - extra warm and fuzzy for the beloved lurkers among us. Time to hit the reset button, Volks!

12,552 for 2010 included no psycho squirrels, lots of embellished phat ladies, one drop and roll in Dan'ls front yard, and not so many naked ladies. The good news - I get to start anew right about now!

I hope you all have many, many miles of smiles throughout the New Year! ~Jeff

Starting Mileage: 54,200
Ending Mileage: 65,876

2010 total: 11,676 miles including one SS1K and not including one 200 mile tow.

I also accumulated 66,000 frequent flier miles, which cut into riding time a little.

I didn't start keeping track of miles until I changed the oil on July 3rd. Since then, until the 31st of Dec. I only had 5760 miles. This year I will start keeping track of the miles in Jan., starting today with my New Years Day ride.


Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.

Not many here.  Been working too darn much but I will try to improve my average this year.  Happy New Year to all the VRCC members, families and friends.

In this wild and wolly world, there are only 3 things you can depend on, your brains, your bros, and your bike.  Ride free!!!

Super Santa

2010 saw 22,425 miles on my fast, black 2000 Interstate.  Can I do more this year? 

Will just have to see how the 'kitchen passes' hold out.

f-Stop

Did not keep track from 1/1/10.  I'll take a picture of the odometer before I head out this morning, so I'll be able to answer one year form now! :)
 
Had my blinker on across three states!

Disco

Almost 16,000 on the Valkyrie.  8,500 of that in 18 days.  3-400 on Janet's bikes.

Good year.  Can't wait to start over again!

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebars to the saddle.
