Part 3. Roads Less Travelled - Wet and Wild

[the Ferret]

Ptero, I use this site whenever I want to know how far in miles you guys are going

http://www.metric-conversions.org/length...-miles.htm

I just plugged in 50000 in the KM box, hit enter and used the figure it spit out

Alway entertained by round ( full?) numbers and find 50000 KMs sounds better than 31,068 miles. However 30,000 miles sounds better than 48,280 kilometers. I rode 27,053 miles last year,(43537 kms) but when asked just round it off to 27,000 miles.

That is one whole heap of seat time.

Cheers
And that rounds out to 119.279542kms PER DAY! Staggering.

Cheers again.

Lol ... someday I will probably get tired of riding, but after 49 years on two wheels ( 50 years by the time the rally rolls around) I don't see it happening anytime soon. I still look forward to riding everyday. I actually cut back my goal this year to 15,000 miles but I 'm afraid it will end up being more than that. I turned over 3000 miles yesterday and "riding season" hasn't really even started yet. According to my records for the first 3 months last year I had only ridden 1005 miles.
