I chose my TT name "Ride" because that's what I do, it's my crack. I ride a lot, like every chance I get. With the the TE/SM 610 and my TXC450 I have ridden more this year than ever. Did 280 miles Sunday/Monday. Been getting after it 2-3 times a week. Just wondering how much people on here ride their fine Italian / German machines???
I try and ride to work if I can't ride on the week end. Hate to be a "slaber" but, if thats all there is at the time I'll take it.
Ideally given the geographical restraints 2x a month. I definitely need to ride more than I have been lately. Of course it would be great to live closer to off road riding areas and have more time, "product testing for work" would be ideal
Hope hubby heals up quickly, Northern MI sounds tempting until my memories of mosquitoes kicks in, it is a bit far too. Upper peninsula?
I try and get in 2 days (one weekend) a month if I can. I'd love more but usually kid's sports takes up most of my weekends.
2-3 hours offroad a week for the past 3+ years. Started riding Dec. 04. Not quite like crack, but close, if I'm not riding 'em I'm maintaining 'em.
Sounds like a great place to live. I spent 1/2 my life in MI and used to know it quite well. Thank you very much! (*new nickname for Chop Suey LOL*)
I get a full day in every Monday with a group I coerced into riding together on TT, and ride about once every other week with the wife. I wish I could get two full days a week in, but I'll take what I can get. Oh yeah, I also have a Bandit 1250 that I ride to work at least three days a week (every day lately). Tommy
I ride my EXC far more than the TE. Does that count? I'm in the woods 3-5 times a week (about 10 hours) after work and weekends turning laps on my loop for practice. Been getting 1 to 2 big weekend event rides out on the 610 per month, with a few commutes and dual-sporty rides in here and there when I can.
Husky (commuter) is ridden every day it's not raining and at least 2 times a month (night ride with the boys) which adds up to about 800 miles a month. The Honda is ridden once or twice a month for 6-8 hours which adds up to about 200 or so miles. So I ride about a combined 1000 miles a month. Twice a year we take a Maine trip and ride 3 6-14 hour days (around 150 - 200 miles per day)
My miles are measured by smiles… Weekdays; 40 miles daily commute to work… After hours and weekends varies but always there and always FUN The 610smie is proving to be a blast It’s even a joy just to look at, sitting in the garage
Ive been riding every weekend since i bought the husky, minimum 6-8 hours a day. Just went and built a new trail tonight to ride this weekend....
Not as much as would like to lately. Although I have managed to put about 3000 miles on her in a year.Sadly, over half of it has been on pavement.
Ride you are siiiick an addict you need help,,,,,,,,we should all come up to your zone and help you get through the trails once a week lately for me,,,usually about 50 miles per ride....the TXC rocks, R (still on oem suspension)
Hey !!! Us are people too ! (You must do with what you have, not everybody have good mountains in their back yard… Funny that a small company with a U after the H has recognized it, yet a big company with an O after the H has not…) SM(i)EE to the (vertically challenged) people !
