Sung in the style of The Proclaimers....
« on: December 01, 2011, 10:25:46 AM »
But I just rode 500 miles
And I will ride 500 more
Just to be the man who rode 1000 miles
And hopefully rides for 1000s more.....


Part of the reason I've delayed my "formal" review is I'm afraid Brammo will say, "Ok, review done, let's have the bike back"  :)

Plus I haven't ridden it in the snow yet...though maybe this weekend...And I haven't ridden it in really hot weather...so I guess I have to keep it till summer ;)

A bit over 500 miles in 21 days...averaging 24 miles a day...Will catch Brammofan before the end of January :)

Ok, so I got the loaner at 450 miles...

I've driven over 1K now...in 53 days


I slowed down a bit as I did take a couple off days off over Christmas....

Still I'm at about 19 miles a day average, which isn't bad as my commute is only 10.4 miles round trip. 5 days a weeks I should be riding about 52 miles if I was strictly commuting. Instead I'm doing closer to 130 miles a week.

Fun to ride for sure....just waiting on the Plus so I can ride even more miles....

on a related note (not that anybody cares :) ),  I will be doing a bit less riding this month...So I might not catch up to Brammofan's mileage before the end of the month...

One, I haven't ridden my scooter in 53 days...need to get it out once and a while (my car will sit, but she gets taken out of the garage for date night...so she does get started every now and then).

Two, my wife and I are going to Hawaii, the big island, for a week and a day...so that is 8 days without riding. Unless I can find some way to get the bike into my luggage.
