What was your 2023 mileage?

Every year I ask "what was your annual mileage?", so what's your 2023 number?
It's taken me a while to get all the Christmas crap out of the way to even be able to get to the bike to read last years mileage, which was a frankly miserable 843.
That's just over five times higher than 2022 though

843?
Still, it's nice to get a weekend off, even if it's just once a year.

A tad over 4,000.
Less than I'd like but life got in the way a bit from September onwards.
Here's hoping for better weather in '24.

Around 5,000 in 2022 and 6,500 in 2023.
Both would have been a bit higher but I was not able to ride in Sept either year due to medical issues within the family.

Almost 4,000 miles, I'd estimate more than 3/4 commuting. Although I have been getting the bus sometimes to work.

From 02/04 through 26/11 'Sheelagh' registered 4376 pleasure smiles... did around 300 on the Guzzi before it went (to part fund the Strom) and a further 400 ish on the FILs bike, a run to Pembrey Race Circuit for the weekend.
I also did about 60k kilometres, whilst sat on the sofa, watching Kyle Pike riding round China, India and Brazil

Over 11k miles between the NC750X & the F8GS.
Should have been around 3.5k more but I didn't make it to Italy
