Okay Fellow Visionaries,
I would like to try something for all of next year. I want to try and figure the amount of mileage we crazy visionaries put on out 25 year old bikes in a year. A total number for all of us. So,....

If ya'll can submit to me (by PM or Email) what the exact mileage is on your odometer (specify miles or kilometers) as the new year changes over (Midnight - 12/31~01/01), I will keep a spreadsheet file with your screen name and mileage. Of course, if your bike is in storage right now and know it won't be ridden until January, you can submit your mileage now. We will do it all over again when we drop into 2008. I will then talley all mileage on our beloved Visions and post a total for the year 2007.

Of course this will only work if ya'll submit your mileage and as new members join our family, I will have to remember to ask them what their exact odometer reading is to add it to the file. What do yous guys think?

I will look it up tonight! I'm hoping for an above average year in 2007 with the Colorado trip!

Great idea!  I'll submit mine soon.

If you have an accident on a motorcycle, it's always your fault. Tough call, but it has to be that way. You're in the right, and dead -on a bike. The principle is not to have any accident. If you're involved in an an accident, it's because you did not anticipate. Then, by default, you failed.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!

'82 Vision, Pearl Orange finish, lots of up-grades!!!

Yeah right... With the way my luck is, you will be delivered to my house wearing thigh high boots and a halter top.  :-\

2,322 miles. No miles at all during 2006, physical problems denied use this year  :'(. Optimistic for a good year in 07 :)

Anybody who hasn't sent their end of year mileage, now is the time to do it.

Hope to get mine in next weekend, when the 'V' gets home. I didn't get many miles last year though, too many things to interfere!

It is good to see some higher mileage V's out there. It gives me some confidense that my newest member of the family will get there some day. But, so far she has only 17014 miles. Happy new year to all.         Airplane Steve
