    How much do you ride in an average summer week?

    It's great to see all the different types of reasons to have a motorcycle. I would be interested to see how many km people clock up during peak motorcycle season.

    Whether you pootle out for a weekend blitz or you commute everyday.

    At the moment I myself am managing about 300km p/w since November

    Not that I'm saying the more you ride the more experienced you'll get...

    unfortunatly i don't ride much during summer as i do 4x4 trials during the summer months and if im not out racing im in the shed fixing the bloody thing. But during winter i would clock up around 200k with weekend rides and the odd commute.

    When uni starts again and if the weathers nice for the entire week, that'll be... 560km just for the daily commute. Plus whatever I do on the weekend.

    It will be lovely, except for the motorway runs obviously

    Motorway vs Lights every km?... Unfair choice

    A couple of hundred I guess, It is my only transport, so college, work, shops everywhere... But most of the things I do are pretty local so lots of rides but mostly only shorties Km's are pretty consistent regardless of season as well.

    So far this summer I've done about 200km on the bike. It's sitting in the garage doing nothing due to an injury I sustained a few months back on another bike. I hope my hand gets better enough so I can ride properly again.
