My list isn't as impressive as some either. I tend to keep my bikes for a while ... no point selling them if they haven't done at least 50,000 miles!


So my list is;


A red one (used the side of a Capri to kill this one),
A blue one (blew this one up .. twice),
A black one (55,000 miles in two years),
Another black one (well over a hundred thousand miles, can't remember exactly what, something like 140,000),
Another red one (just short of 60,000 miles, again in two years),
A third red one (around 75,000 miles in three years),
A yellow one (yes yellow) (got married to a bike hating witch so managed an extremely pitiful 30,000 miles in nine years!!!),
And my current red and white one!


I am considering another one for maybe next year (mine only has 62,000 miles on it at the mo, so good for another year at least) and this one is probably going to be either a grey one, a red one or a white one. Can't decide.
