When I was working a regular day job, I averaged riding around 30k-35k miles per year. Since that ended in 2011, my riding has dropped substantially. Apparently many of my miles were commuting to work. So while my miles are down, at least the quality of my miles is up.
I did manage to edge up to near 23k this year, by making a trip to Lake Erie on the way to the Mail Pouch Fly By in late August, another all the way up to New Hampshire in October, a trip to the FL panhandle in early August, down to the FL keys in mid-December, but started the year off by heading over to T-32 in mid-May. I also went to TriSTAR in late May and the Big Lynn Lodge event in July. For a day ride, I rode up to the Red River Gorge event in early July.
Cindy & I rented an RV in September and drove over to the Mississippi River on the west end of Tennessee before heading north. We actually went through Cape Girardeau, where STAR was scheduled but cancelled, on the way to Minnesota and the "source" of the Mississippi River at Lake Itasca. That trip was interesting, but it was 14 days of zero riding. We also rented a cabin at a state park in Tennessee for the entire week of Thanksgiving. Again, it was a good time, but included no riding.
Here's hoping for more riding in 2021.
