Default New Bike - Mileage Check

Picked up my Ultra on April 6, 2006.
As of this morning I have 4200 miles on her.
90% of those miles my better half has been on the back.

In previous years I was spending all my time tournament fishing. I got this bike so my wife & I could spend more time together.
It certainly is working out that way. And we have met some great people in the process. Life it truly good!

I know there are some real iron butts out there piling up the miles. How many miles you got in a short amount of time.

Here we are in Port Huron at the Blue Water Bridge.

I put new tires on mine May 05, 2006 before I did my California Dreamin ride. Went to my dealer this morning (their open for the Saints to Sinners Ride) and had them put a new tire on the rear. It was down to 1/32". I put on 9,682 miles in about 6 weeks! [sm=biker2.gif] Wife was along for less than 3000.

We also did our ride to Yellowstone and Beartooth Pass on a new Road Zeppelin seat! Sweet.

Not planning anything over 400-500 mile weekenders until Sturgis in August. That'll be a solo for me. Wife can't make it [sm=yeahsmile.gif] I'm going with a small group and we have a film crew from a Los Anglese Production company that'll be with us documenting the trip.
