We'll never use 'em all, but I ordered 100,000 mile stickers today. They'll be just like the 50K stickers ... except they'll say 100,000 miles.

well if you put a ski on front and a Russian ice tire with studs on back, you can rack miles up faster?????!!!!!!
 
51,000 in 4.8 years and counting...

The mileage is going up due to a new contract quite some distance away.

I'll probably hit 100,000 in about 4 years. Though, in theory, I should be retired before then.
 
Phil, I'm getting close.......................................... to the 50 K anyway.. Gotta find time to roll up another 4,500 miles and have had the NT just a little over 3 yrs. Might not make that goal this year. Weather's been pretty crappy here in WV lately and I can't seem to get my butt off the mountain bike and out of the kayak. :shrug2:
 
I am jealous of those that can ride more. When I first bought my NT I had a different job and rode whenever I could. I worked a normal day and hardly every worked more than 40 hours a week. Now I work a lot of extra hours and on weekends. I can't even commute as often by motorcycle because I sometimes need my 4 wheeled vehicle to move big stuff between sites I support.

I have owned my NT since April 2011 and only crossed 12K on the NT. My DR650 was purchased in 2012 and has almost 10K on it. This year in particular I just haven't been able to ride. I use to be more active here. I have just been too busy working to ride or visit NT-owners much. I have already put in for spearfish 2015 so I don't miss it this year. Work made me cancel last year.
 
It is great that you are able to find some time to ride regardless of annual mileage. I was in somewhat similar working conditions most of my civilian working years, 70-80+ hours per week and commuting by bike was not in the cards. I got in lots of miles, but it was behind the steering wheel of a big truck. Now I consider riding as my major retirement function.

wow, 100K. I sure hope I can do as well. Lets see, 10-12K i got 14K on clock (5K total at best this year-thanks pancreatitis ), nope I think I'll be dust. I just spend 2K in my Ford F150 with wife in WV, that was such pain. WV roads and I am in a pickup truck. Okay the radio telescope and caverns were nice (except for Smoke Hole-avoid that place), but the road, the roads so needed one of my motorcycles.
 
Only Five to Go...

I took a short ride this afternoon after visiting a friend at the hospital and rolled past 95,000 miles on the odometer on the west side of Loveland.
 
If I can find a cheaper source, I will. When I made the 100,000 mile stickers, I had to get 50 or so of them and it cost me $40+. I'd be willing to spring for $20-$25, but at the rate we're going I doubt if we'll ever need more than 3 or 4 of them.

I'll do some looking around. How close are you? Rust-in-Peace has got to be getting fairly close. At the rate I'm going I'll be another couple of years. I'm at 112,000 and I'm guessing I'll get 15K or so this year.
 
Is there a coveted 75K sticker? I should be there this year.

Thanks Phil but I've still got about 10,000 more miles to ride. Since I just reached 140,000 miles yesterday.

OK! I'll get off my duff and see if I can find a source for a smaller number of stickers. Keep it rollin'!
