Your average KM per riding season.

I was doing around 5-10k per year before.

.........this season I'm close to 5 already. I hope I can maintain this bike well enough for 100,000+!
 
5-6,000 in Australia and usually 15-20k in Canada but travelling a lot and few trips has dropped that a bit.
I usually put on 700k average per week over 9 months I'm here in Canada as I ride most days and it's 90 or so to the Forks and back which is the minimum.
 
I'm going to probably ride about 20k - 30k this year :D I'm hoping I can get this bike up to 100k + :D
 
Impressive numbers guys.

That's odd... no response from the Horton's crowd that gather for free wifi that would be hard pressed to put on 1k a year, or the guys that ride from home to the gym in their shorts n tees - Model citizens of the "how to" of what not to do.

Me: ~10k... shooting for 10k this year with a pair of weekend trips... I really gotta trade some cage (30k/year) commute time into bike time...
 
I have done about 450 Km this year
 
1km/s
 
I have done almost 1600km so far this year.... And that's with only doing 2 trips to work (about 60km a day) which for sure will increase as summer continues to come closer
 
8,000km so far this year... I've been averaging about 15 per year for the past 6 years. And I use my car to commute.
 
My very first 300 rough,high risk,wobbly kms so far....

hope to get many more...
 
200-400kms per nice weather weekend x number of nice weather weekends + 1, 2000-4000km road trip = total riding kilometerage per season.

Who really cares how much they ride? or where they ride to for what reason? If they enjoy it, good on them. There is no right and wrong, it comes down to doing what you like. If that means riding to timmies for a coffee down the street, then keep on going.
 
I've put 8k on my bike since I got it late October last year. It was also in the shop from april 20th to may 22nd, so I lost a month of good riding weather :( My guess would be 25-30k this year
 
I don't use my bike for commuting, I try to ride it as often as possible and all I manage to do is around 5,000kms per year. I have to try harder, I guess.
 
1,200km last year 2,000km the year before so I sold it. This is my first season in 12 years without a street bike and so far I don't miss it. One week till SOAR round two, six weeks till RACE and hopefully I'll get the RM out a few times between races too.
 
2012 I put on 18K on my SV650, this year due to many reasons I have not been riding much but I should hit the 10K mark by the end of summer. doing a 6200km trip so that will help get things rolling !!
 
10k Per year

I realized it's not the amount that matters, it's how you ride that amount of km that matters.
 
I don't have any sort of commute, so I only get in 15,000 a year.
 
30-40 thousand kilometers on Sport Bikes
40-60 thousand kilometers on dirt bikes and supermotos

All GTA not including long trips, ride events, shows, races.

Total anywhere from 70 - 100 thousand kilometers a year, been riding lagally lincensed on the streets since 2009, been riding bikes since 5 years old, all my cousins an i have been riding since we were kids everyday. and we still ride everyday possible, and when we go out we ride non stop 5 to 6 hours, and we ride to train not cruise, that adds up very fast in one week, in summer we rack up miles like crazy, we are always having to change or maintain something on our bikes every one or two ride, we go through tires, gas, and oil changes like crazy.

The bad? having to work on our bikes almost everyday or so, after years and years it gets hecktic, and upgrading to new bikes every spring/winter.

We all ride all year, rain or shine, snow or not. we build and work, maintain on our own bikes, i ride everywhere i go, specially because of the GTA traffic.

eventually riding hours will decrease as i get older to something like 2k -5k a year, and have a family and find other interesting things to master, like flying planes, traveling etc.
