Miles you rode this year and special memorable trips

[Rogue Hawk]

Weather here in Chicago has finally turned too ugly to ride. But not until I got 10K miles in this year. My highest total so far. And that is with no long trips. It was all commuting and going out at night after work. I did in a forest preserve. Its small, so I go up and down several of the best roads. I wish I lived in a place where I had more available.

Head South to Springfield, Missouri in May...


This was my shortest year of riding:
My most memorable trip, was riding my RT-L back to the dealership to trade it in: but that was on June 27th!

This year was a busy year and we had less time to ride , we both only got in around 15,000 miles as we were selling our home and had to thin the plunder out and put the remaining in storage . Our memorable trip was a 4,465 mile ride from Oregon to Yellowstone to Glacier Park, back down to Hell's Canyon then over the Wallowa's then back home.

My most memorable trip would have to be the one at the end of April. That is when I went to Gatlinburg, Tn. on my 2012 RSS, and had my 2016 F3T delivered to me in a Walmart parking lot. That 4 day trip accumulated about 1600 miles.
My next trip was to Staunton, Va. for the annual M109R meet in mid June. There I had a chance for my spyder to really stretch it's legs, as the break-in period was over. On this 5 day trip, it accumulated another 1700 miles.
My next trip was with another spyder friend of mine in early October. We did the entire length of the BRP and Skyline Drive in 3 days. This was another total of around 1500 miles
My last trip was to the Spyder Rally held in Maggie Valley. As always, we had a good time. This trip was in the middle of October, and we were there for 5 days and totaled about 1800 miles. Total number of miles during my 7+ months of ownership, 9k+.

2017 was a good year of riding for us.

2016 was my medical year. I had three heart procedures and a hip surgery. We put a total of 4600 miles on two Spyders. My lowest year of riding in over a decade.

2017 we did better. 11000 miles on two 's. No special trips--just enjoying the countryside and my new found freedom from health issues.

I even purchased another two wheeler. I put 3079 miles on that between June 28 and shutdown on Oct 11.

Riding season start 4/6 and shutdown (ice and snow on roads) 10/11. Not our longest riding season--but a good one. 14,000 miles and change.

and currently have 17,800 miles on it, but the year isn't over. The longest and most memorable trip was to Nova Scotia and we racked up a tad over 5000. Four trips to Maggie Valley including the rally in October. I have two wheelers in the garage as well so current ride total is at 24,000 so far this year. Retirement helps

Did about 10,000 miles this year so far. Best ride was when Cynthia and I went to Montrose CO. over July 4th. Great trip in spite of hitting a dog on the way over.P1050482.jpgP1050494.jpg
