You're either very, very old, or that'a a hell of a lot of motorcycle
riding! ;+}

I might be a little of both. ];-)

I started riding in 1973. Over the years, in some periods I rode
30,000 miles a year. I've ridden around the United States four
separate times as specific trips and for some years a motorcycle was
my only transportation other than walking. It's easy to accumulate a
lot of miles when you do it every day.

I stopped riding much about 2004 ... just had other things on my mind
and no particular motivation to use the bike. In 2006 I sold the bikes
as they'd been sitting too long without use. Don't know if or when
I'll find the genii again ... but it can happen any time.

As a mechanical engineer, I've always appreciated the technical aspects of motorcycles, but have absolutely no desire to ride one, at least on public roads, where a motorcycle, unfortunately, becomes a target for some.
