So, 2012 is on its way and I'm wondering if we should be updating our mileages now. I'm interested to see who racked up the most in 2011
2011 Mileage Competition

OK, here's my final mileage for 2011...

and here was my starting mileage...

So that gives me a whopping 3706 miles for the year (that's 5964 km, it sounds better that way). I'm thinking that might not win.
That is, for the most part, my mileage for all bikes this year. I had nominal mileage on other bikes. Of course that did include a few test rides on a 2007 FJR, a 2006 Star Warrior, and a 2006 Star Roadliner Midnight. All fun, but not my FZ1. I also had a bit of butt time on the wife's Ninja 250r, which was a bit too much after it was lowered. The massive attraction between myself and the earth overpowered the lowered suspension and the rear tire rubbed a hole in the fender well.
I might have had a couple of miles with some of my father-in-laws rides, but nothing that will help me in this competition. I knew I was in it for the fun. Good luck to all, and start counting up the miles again! :fencers:

An anti-climactic year for me with bikes. Time in school, student budget and a bike trip that turned into a car trip (happily) means not a lot of fun riding for me in 2011.
Starting mileage was 25899--finishing mileage 40093. Total for 2011: 14194 km or 8820 miles
Can't wait for 2012 to do some real rides
