Retired and ride year round in north western Illinois. Usually do 30K + miles per year. This year I set a goal to do 40K. On track so far with 14,500 on the various bikes total.
Scheduled a ride to Yellowknife in about four weeks. Will do North Carolina soon. J&P open house, a day trip to Milwaukee, Auburn Ind. will be in between some of the longer rides.
Finished the trip last month to the River Run at Laughlin. A buddy dropped plans for a trip to California next week so I must make a new plan.
I will do more local miles this year as I got the 13 Street Bob back from the 120R install. Did 1,080 miles in 8 days circling the county. It won't let me take out the other rides.

I am such a slacker. I'm only doing about 3-4000 per year. Last couple of years have been real busy with some family health issues and work. Not much time to get out. But things are lined back out so its time for a new bike and making some miles

Well, my 3.9 year average is 13,369. But I spent a good portion of that with a torn rotator cuff surgery and rehab. This current bike is just barely a year old and I have over 15,000 miles on it. Haven't ventured very far home yet. Work keeps getting in the way.

About 25,000 to 35,000 a year depending on how many times I go in to the office. The wife averages about 30k per year on her RK. I ride mine in all weather to and from work for a 60 mile commute and some days, this happens twice. Most weekends, we do anywhere from 150 to 400 miles.
