That's pretty " kick arse "..... LOL
I just stopped @ Sheboygan for a highway break.... had to get out of the vehicle for a while due to sciatica. It seems M-DOT or the Mac Bridge authority decided to close the Big Bridge last Friday due to falling ice ????? Instead of waiting it out or riding with the weekend warriors ( %$#*@ ) whom made it over the bridge earlier .... we did a 180 and drove around the long way.

I bet I have 20k in " chasing the snow " miles ! Heck .... probably more than that .... not to mention .... on average .... my wallet is empty .

I have 1010 miles @ 27.3 hours on my '18 ZR6000. Average speed of 37 mph.

Wow some of you guys drive like little girls...

That being said, most of my miles were riding from Minocqua to Copper Harbor and back and there are a handful of railroad beds along that route..AND we never need to stop at intersections and sit idle reading a map because I know the trails like the back of my hand..

Interesting thread. I've kinda looked at that number for a few years now. As mentioned here, much of it has to do with what kind of riding you do (trail, off trail, lakes, RR grades, etc.). Knowing my numbers, I find it useful to choose my loops. Decide how long I want to ride and how many stops I might make and its pretty simple to do the math and pick a route.

I think it might also be useful information when used sled shopping and another factor to consider...

Ah ya dude... Snowballcancer.org Nick Keller does a 500 mile day ride every feb and I am proud to say I did it feb of 16' 523 miles in 16 hours. Worst of it was I did 280 the day before on accident... 800 miles in 2 days. Read up on that cause. He set the world record @ 19,340 miles in 60 consecutive days. Ironman Nick Keller. Thats my white Pro S in front there.

I have a 30mph average on my 2016, but I always warm it up well, which will bring down that average. Not to mention stopping at intersections and waiting for people to catch up. I keep it running unless they are out of sight. And I don't keep it pinned as much as I did in my younger days. I usually only cruise at about 75 across a lake, unless I just rode it and know that it's safe to pin it. In my younger days, I was not quite as cautious.

Condescending attention *ho*e or not, yur alright fatman.



FWIW when Nick was planning his first attempt at breaking the 60 day record in memory of his mother, I called him and offered free lodging if his journeys lead him over into NE WI. Also sent a donation as many have.
instead his rides took him back home everyday, which actually made more sense incase of breakdown.....BWAAAHAHAHA....breakdown...... on a Yamaha 4 stroke????....LOL Rrrriiiiight!
