How many miles did you ride today? - Page 2

KawiKid860 · March 17th, 2013, 09:59 PM

160 in one of the worst winds I've ever ridden in, was not fun. I might get flack for saying this but today was the only time I can ever think of where a 250 probably wouldn't have had enough power, my poor 500 was straining in 6th gear at times. Was some crazy wind.. + my new sailbags I mean saddlebags.

ai4px · March 18th, 2013, 04:47 AM

250 or so miles.... 100 of that with my wife on her bike. yay! And it was warm enough this morning to ride to work! yay!

Miles_Prower · March 18th, 2013, 05:35 AM

rode 70 miles yesterday, it was in the upper 30's. got some great pictures and enjoyed some nice countryside! and now...bring in the snow..great..

GSchneider · March 18th, 2013, 06:23 AM

Rode for the first time yesterday. Rode about 35 miles in 30 degree weather.
Can't wait for it to be nicer out.

BRad704 · March 18th, 2013, 06:48 AM

Yesterday about 70 total, including about 40-50 miles of random backroads on a gorgeous Spring day. today is cloudy and rainy and gloomy. I'm sitting here in sweatpants, that's how unmotivated I am right now.

rojoracing53 · March 18th, 2013, 09:13 PM

Over the last five days 1650 miles and two of those days I didn't even get to ride. Damn that was some good riding, can't wait to do it again.

YunMing · March 18th, 2013, 09:15 PM

Like 10. I just hit reserve. D:

Dozer · March 19th, 2013, 06:55 PM

'twas nice and sunny when i got home from work so i hit my favorite highway/backroad/twisty combination. Got home before dark... Man the days are so much longer now!

29.6 miles

lgk · March 19th, 2013, 07:03 PM

Around 50 mi was nice outside after a drizzly morning ride.

rainbowdash · March 19th, 2013, 07:22 PM

80 miles. My daily commute. I have been commuting on the lil' guy now average 3 days/week, my goal is 4 days this week.

wardie · March 19th, 2013, 07:24 PM

2,500 miles total

adouglas · March 22nd, 2013, 03:31 AM

Zero.

Again.

Because even though it's spring, it's still in the 20s at night and there's still snow. Some more fell yesterday.

#$*$)##@ WARM UP, ALREADY!

Bloody National Weather Service. I ordered nice spring weather from them months ago and they STILL haven't delivered. I need to register a customer complaint.

BRad704 · March 27th, 2013, 02:16 PM

Not too many exciting miles on Leo the blue ninja (my kids name it), but I did get to put about 10 on 'Merica the Red White and Blue 20yo VFR.

Not exciting miles, per se, but the fact that I am "done" enough to put her on the street was VERY exciting for me! Quite a different feeling to ride to the shop with 27hp, toy around with 98hp for a bit and then ride home on 27hp again.

Bones85 · March 27th, 2013, 02:31 PM

About 67 miles. I'm going to try to ride every single day for the rest of the year.

astricklin · March 27th, 2013, 09:52 PM

Got 8 in today after work. Not quite ready to brave the commute.

JELY1990 · March 29th, 2013, 03:41 PM

70 miles just riding around randomly on my day off. I would have gone farther, but halfway through I realized I didn't have my wallet and more importantly, what's inside it, my license lol.

wanarace94 · March 29th, 2013, 05:07 PM

115.4 one my first day of spring break

allanoue · March 29th, 2013, 05:13 PM

120 miles

8

CC Cowboy · March 30th, 2013, 07:17 AM

Yesterday, 2 blocks to the gym, then 25miles around the loop.

Today, planning on about 100.

TheDementedDrummer · March 30th, 2013, 07:46 AM

40

astricklin · March 30th, 2013, 10:44 PM

100. Went with my friend who has been riding for many years.

80MPHdownhill · March 31st, 2013, 08:36 AM

I rode 120, but then paid jiggles $100 to roll my odo back 200, so it was -80 today.

csmith12 · March 31st, 2013, 09:16 AM

32 laps on my 1 good trail (1.2miles) behind my house with a friend on his 4 wheeler. Broke the footpeg on the lil' yammi 80. So broke out the china 200. It was good and bad at the same time. Good to be out riding, bad that the suspension on the 200 is sh*t.

Dozer · April 11th, 2013, 05:37 PM

Amounting to about 80 miles of highway/backroads maybe 60/40 ratio respectively.

gitoy · April 11th, 2013, 06:15 PM

40 miles to go to angeles crest, 134 miles of twisty mountain roads, 40 miles to go home...214 miles altogether...

doing it again tomorrow...

CC Cowboy · April 12th, 2013, 05:07 PM

Short ride today (the gym). Yesterday I did the loop. Tomorrow never knows. Sunday, big ride if weather is perfect and I'm still awake after the Formula 1 race, Supercross, and WSB race.

gitoy · April 12th, 2013, 07:45 PM

same place except this time 130 miles of twisties...

40+130+40=210 miles

man, am i tired...

himynameisjoe · April 12th, 2013, 08:35 PM

Only like 5

It stormed all day! But hopefully lot's of miles this weekend!!

I was going to write essentially the same post except mine is about 6 (3 mi one-way). Nothing except accumulated ice or snow interrupts this.

Karate practice is 20mi round-trip, but that's evening riding so I defer to the car whenever it's tricky. My vision is good but black ice is a totally other beast.

CC Cowboy · April 13th, 2013, 08:18 AM

I woke up hearing tire testing at the track (last few days). I thought it would be a good day to ride (out to the track and complain). Now, I'm not one to complain about track days but, if I'm not invited I think it's rude. It's overcast and only 70 degrees so I don't think I'll ride out and complain. Besides, I think it's sports car testing.

If it gets nicer I'll ride this afternoon.

TedBull · April 13th, 2013, 11:08 AM

130 miles round trip. Daily commute.

pomartin · April 13th, 2013, 12:14 PM
