I don't think miles can be used as the measuring stick for all, if you live in Alaska you sure are not going to put 20K on a year because you can't ride all year, same in Maine, NY, VT, WI, MI etc, just doesn't happen. | I hear ya and totally agree. I did a lot of years when I worked 14 to 16 hrs a day 6 days a week. Back then I rode to work and on Sunday and such. People have to deal with life and it sometimes gets in the way of riding and fishing.....which shows how screwed up life is <smile> . It isn't about miles but a persons being willin to ride. Lot's of folks are willin but just can't get shook loose to do so. But thier day will get here like mine has. The poor slobs that buy a bike as a staus symbol are sad but they serve a useful purpose as well. I have several partners that have gotten great deals on tricked out low milage bikes from such folks.
Ride Free.....

| Feel free to ride it  hahaha Good One I like it!
I think it is truly a personal decision as to whether someone rides their bike, parks it in the garage to look at or trailers it to a rally. Some buy to ride other buy to look. Keep on riding yours though because we all know you are having way more fun than they are.
