The Million Mile Challenge. Who's In?

[otrfjr]

Congratulations to everyone who contributed. Kudos especially to you, Kevin, for making the challenge happen and keeping tabs.

Friends
Been off line a couple of weeks. Went to Argentina (lovely country) and have been generally sidelined from riding by vertigo (BPN). Hateful stuff.

We've totally crushed the million mile goal. Total to this post is . . . .

Put me down for another 1300. 1200 on the FJR and another 100 on the old 73 Trident.

+195 for week ending 11/21. 13,971 YTD. These head colds suck and really limit your riding!

Since last post, end of July, I have managed to add 4,948 miles with one major ride:The Perfect Fall Ride.

 

[FJamR]

add 9466 from my K8

Thanks for the kind words. I always have to force myself to do the tallies but I get such a kick out of reading what everyone has been doing . . . which was the whole point of this exercise. Someday some social scientist should do a deep dive on all this data. It paints such a rich picture.

There was a time when I wondered if we would get there. Well thanks to stalwarts and new contributors down the stretch, we've made the million mile work look like easy pickings. I suspect that all in, the forum rode at least 50% more miles than what we're reporting. And the total to here is . . .

200

+ 1600................19,200 total to date in 2008.

I'm at 70100, that's 20514 miles this year so far.

Is this for all forum-member two-wheel miles, or just FJR miles?

Only 69 miles this weekend, but they were done mostly in deep sand on my TTR125. Had a blast, and will be paying the price tomorrow. My legs are sore already!

When you think about it, 1,000,000 is nothing, especially since I contributed 2% of it.

haven't really posted up since I saw it went >1mm. Well done folks.

I think to make this more interesting, let's limit it to FJR miles.... and see where that gets us.....

 

[Prubert]

8253 since I picked my '07 up in late July.

Miles to here are . . .

There is a question about FJR vs. non FJR miles. The non FJR miles are probably 15,000 or so.

To Colin's point, we've crushed 1 million miles. Well done. I will do a final tally at the end of the year and then the 2008 challenge will be closed. I'll leave it to someone else to issue and track a challenge next year if they want to. Or perhaps we should just have a "what did you do on your FJR today?" thread.
