    There's some stunning views there!
    I think my year's mileage is probably ticking over about 7000m or so at the moment.. Estimating it to convert to about 13.5K kilometres by the snow of winter... Making the most before petrol prices forces cutting back on riding for pleasure too.

      That first shot in Chilliwack is awesome.
      Ive got about 4000 miles. Not as much as I would like but had to make due with the weather given.

        I also did about 8000km this season. Only one long trip, Toronto to Lake Superior, then to Manitoulin Island and return (2200km in 5 days) .
        The rest was commuting to work, weekend day rides and Friday night 'poser' rides with my Harley buddies.

            I've done about 8000 miles this year. There are a few threads on here, with pics of where Free Coffee, JaxKat and myself have gone this year. Coffee and I also went to Kecksburg PA, for a little joy ride.



            We went to Centralia PA...



            And to Washington DC. No real awesome scenic views, but good rides, nontheless.

              I'm around the 9000km mark. Got my M1 in 2nd week of march, dropped the bike at end of may and broke my collarbone. Got back on 2nd week on july and been riding to work and everywhere else I can think of. Got my M2 Aug 31st, so could start riding after dark!

              All in all, I don't think I did too bad for my 1st year.

                  I did over 11,000 miles in a single trip this summer, and several thousand around town and on small trips.

                      by the way, these shots were taken with my iPone 3Gs, which doubles as my hands free phone and stereo while riding.

                        1300 miles since 8/6/10. I ride every day if weather is cooperative (meaning no snow). Since I work as a Social Worker, I get to go from home to home (on those glorious 70-80 degree days) and give those wee ones a thrill when the SW pulls up on the Kat.

                          I'm about to turn over 15K km shortly..... probably this weekend. We had a pretty good season... I was riding during the March Break, and having all summer off has it's benefits. I'm hoping to say "goodbye" to the "work-world' this year, and then I'll be definitely doing some serious miles....... just not sure what I want to do it on yet. Shopping...... or I'll keep riding the Ace. (YZF 1000r). It's been the most dependable bike I've ever owned.
