Ive done 264 miles today with only about 100 of those on motorways & 448 miles since friday evening this is pretty normal for me
Does anyone else here cover similar miles by bike on a regular basis ?
what sort of milage do you put on your bikes weekly ? ____________________ Of all the things ive lost , i miss my mind the most |

Wouldn't know, speedo is broken so clocks aren't registering mileage.
Guessing around 100-200 miles a week though. ____________________ "Four wheels move the body, two wheels move the soul."

I do 150-250 miles a week. Some weeks I will go for 2 rideouts/meets and go out for the day on my own, those are the weeks where it adds up and I could be filling up two or three times.
When I go to my Mum's it's a 180 mile journey. The most I did in one day was about 230, which included riding back from my Mum's, riding to work and back and going on a bit of a wild goose chase to find a rider who'd broken down some oil (Sunday evening). That was knackering.
Got a 300+ mile ride to Cornwall in August, but this should be much more manageable as I won't have to squeeze work in between. ____________________ H100 Breaking for spares |

when i was in the uk it was about 100miles a day commuting and then another 100-500 in the weekend, oil changes came round pretty quick,
back in nz i probably do 40 miles a day during the summer(week days) and a couple of hundred in the weekend,
winter at the moment so probably only do 100 a week commuting to work, unless its a particuly nice day then ill double that in an afternoon ____________________ the humans are dead

Hey,
Most mileage i've done in one sitting was roughly 300 on my CB500, one fuel and toilet stop. Grimsby>>Portsmouth. Best journey i've ever had on a bike and well worth the trip when i got there
Bikes off the road at the minute while I wait to get paid from my new job so just have my little car fro getting around in. Before the car I was easy averaging 300 a week with going on ride outs and work.
Cheers,
Shaun. |

None now, used to do 200 a week commuting but now cycle it instead. Most done in a day was 809 miles from Southampton to Leon, SW France, left at 12:30AM, arrived at 10:30PM, two up. The missus was not impressed by the time we got there
Cheers
