keithb Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Congratulations Bill!! I am only 103K miles behind you on BMW's and only 70K behind on all miles ridden. Maybe I can catch up if I start today? Link to comment
Dave in Doodah Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Uncanny, Keith - I have almost identical numbers! Looking forward to catching up, too, and every mile in between.... Link to comment
DaveTheAffable Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Well done! I wish I could have started riding a BMW at age 9 like you did... Link to comment
OlGeezer Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 ...and only 70K behind on all miles ridden. Maybe I can catch up if I start today? Uh, Keith, I did ride other motorcycles before I discovered the wonderful world of BMW. If we're gonna talk about total motorcycle miles, you'll have to add 115k to my BMW miles. But, I say "yes", START TODAY but, tomorrow, you will be farther behind because I'm going on a Chocolate Run for the club's Christmas Party and you know what that means. Sigh... Link to comment
OlGeezer Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 Well done! I wish I could have started riding a BMW at age 9 like you did... Thanks, Dave. But I think about people like Dave McQueeny and Dave Swisher both of whom have 1.4 MILLION miles which is almost incomprehensible. That's either 30 years at 45k a year or 45 years at 30k a year. Incredible. I saw Dave McQ. at the premier of Hard Miles in Santa Ana last Saturday night. I had my badge with me, but I was afraid he would laugh at me if I showed it to him. Link to comment
keithb Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 START TODAY but, tomorrow, you will be farther behind Sooo, are you saying I am backing up before I even start? Link to comment
OlGeezer Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 START TODAY but, tomorrow, you will be farther behind Sooo, are you saying I am backing up before I even start? When I wrote that, I was planning on a Chocolate Run (San Juan Capo to Ghiradelli Square in SF and back) for the party tomorrow night. If I took PCH, that would be 1,000+ miles round trip. So, no matter what you rode today, probably you would be going backwards at least for a day. However, since that time I landed a big project with a new client which I have to start on Monday and be done by Christmas. That means I have to finish the project I'm working on this weekend. So, I'm back to where I was, just blowin' smoke once again. Link to comment
