How long have you been riding?

[Colette]

Hi People,

Just thought with all the new blood in here and the forum growing at a rapid pace, it would be good to get an idea of our collective years of riding experience...sooooo...how long have you been riding a motorcycle?

For me, it is just over 3.5 years.

it's been 5 and a half years for me. i think that i've done about 25,000 miles in that time. the first couple of years i didn't ride that much. over the last year and a half i've put 15,000 miles on my bike.

~14yrs

[NovaCoder]

19 years and owned about 15 bikes (makes me feel kinda old)

I did have a few gaps here and there though, longest I was off a bike would have been a couple of years I reckon.

[Glen]

Total 31

26 years on the road.

5 years before that on dirt.

Have never not owned a bike since I was 12.

Hmmmm, I think I suddenly feel older.

Nurse, my blue pills thanks and perhaps a warm Horlicks....

Got my learners permit in October '02, so coming up to three years of riding now. Wow, it felt longer than that!!

On and off for 25 years, although road licence for 17 years.

Had a 'break' from bikes for about 7 years, probably 'cos my last one was a GSXR1000! Been back on 'em for 8 months.

Somewhere between 1 and 35 years ( on and off )
