I managed a reasonably respectable 24,327 Km, just short of my target of 25K for the year on the Strom.
In my defence I did have 2 lengthy stays in hospital, and a month out of the country when our youngest was representing Australia as part of the national gymnastics squad at the world championships in Birmingham in November.

I haven't a clue what I covered on the other bikes, but would hazard a guess at between 2,000 and 3,000 Km.

Not a lot due to my bike injury last year, but hopefully with an up and coming trip to Spain this year that will change.

Just over 6k, but that includes the NC500 trip, plus Portugal. Most of my commuting has been done in the car with all the rain we’ve had.

2023 was another good year for riding. My mileage was 5215.  Mostly pleasure riding. Quite a few day or eveninng rides, solo or with friends. I managed 3 tours. The first was a trip to the Scottish borders. Next was an epic trip to the Picos in Spain with AndyJ. Last was a trip to Wales. Looking forward to racking up some miles this year now.

There is always someone who does less miles than me, but I am historically next to last.

16,000miles and bits total,7,000 on my NT700 Deauville the rest on my CB500X.I traded the CB500X in for a 2020 DL650 on 28 Nov last year but I've only ridden it 400miles due to the weather and 10days of Covid19 in December.

6512 on the vstrom and 2572 on the Silverwing. I must like the vstrom, I usually do the most miles on the scooter!

about 8500 in 2022 just commuting (plus the W.Wales Weekend) and 6750 (+/-) in 2023 (same use) - I managed to achieve a rapid unscheduled dismount in November and was off work for 2 months as a reward, otherwise it would have been much closer to 2022 numbers...

Having just had my MOT, I did 3,702 miles between April 2023 and 23rd March 2024. Given I'd have done some miles in Jan/Feb 23 and 24, I'll take a guess at around 3,500.
If it stays this low in 2024, I really need to reduce the mileage I tell the insurance company I do as am sure they charge me more for my estimated 6,000 per year.
