    Yeah, fields and trees, that sort of thing. A few squirrels maybe.

      Well, so far this year I've logged just under 10000 on my bike before the speedo stopped working on the way home from Moosehead.(RALLY!) I have another 1200 miles on a borrowed bike and 4 more weeks to rack up a few more miles before surgery looks like an 11000 mile year for me. Big plans for next year with the hopefully finished 1000GT, woo-hoo

        Only about 2000km for me this season (and most of that was commuting ). No complaints about the weather, just not as many opportunities to ride for a number of reasons. Still managed to get some nice rides in, and this is the first season (of the three that I have owned The Flame!) that I really trusted the bike to take me further afield than just the local area (and it never let me down ).

        I guess the one thing about commuting on the bike is that you get your bike fix daily, even if you're not riding for pure enjoyment.

          Wear something besides ur speedo when u ride!

          Seriously though, probably knocking on the door of 3,000 miles since Memorial Day...1 900 mile weekend (Labor Day), one 300 mile trip, one 375 mile weekend (Peak to Peak and back), LOTS of to and from work trips ~270 miles/week.

          Still feels like summer (but cold is a coming!).

          I ride year round when there isn't ice on the roads...

                    I worked 13 hours a day 7 days a week this summer except for 2 weeks in June and 3 weeks in September.

                    I probably rode only 1500 to 2000 miles on those R&R's.

                    I paid off my house though...
