How many miles do you average per year riding?

I'm just curious as to how many miles per year people average on their touring bikes? So amaze me at all the miles you travel on two wheels.

Bike is 6 and a half years old, with 94000 miles on it, you do the math.

Never enough, but it's more than I put on my car and pickup combined.
(Oh, wait, it's not a touring model. Sorry.)

Based on my odometer and the age of my bike, about 6k per year. It's really as much as I can manage and I am surprised at the actual amount since I never really thought about it before. Did 400 miles with friends last Saturday and riding all day is a special weekend. If I had a wife that would tour there would definitely be more miles on the odometer. Oh well.

20-30,000 miles a year. Did 29,000 miles last year and never left the state!

I'd ride more but I'm a beat up old guy that's been riding for 50 yrs...
