How far did you pedal your Thorn in 2010?
« on: December 31, 2010, 04:16:00 PM »
One last quick ride of the RST on New Years Eve got me to 10,000km (just over 6,000 in old money)

I didn't crash or get run over once this year, hooray.

The only maintenance/replacements this year where new tyres, hub oil, a chain and I replaced the Rohloff hub cable, this had become frayed after 20,000km, I'll replace this sooner next time.

How has everyone else got on this year?

Not to far this year mainly riding to work and weekends, with the wife being poorly so have only clocked up around 4000 miles.

I have managed to only use the car a handfull of times though, not brilliant but I enjoyed it.

Since I got the RST in July, probably about 1200 miles powered by the mighty Rohloff!  The last 17 miles were this afternoon...Happy New Year!

0 so far.  Hours spent lusting at pictures -dozens,  Hours choosing brand, parts colours-multi-dozens-hours spent attempting to entice my wife into discussions re above 1/4.  Hours watching stock into which I've put bike savings - 2.  Hours spent planning first trek 1.  Miles riding Bella and convincing her i do not have a mistress planned -2000

Pedalled 4000km since September on my Nomad MK2 all fully loaded, Should do another 16,000km in 2011. Will be doing the first oil change this weekend. So far the bike has performed flawlessly.
Happy pedalling for the New Year!

Got my RT in March and covered just over 6,000 miles. This includes my LEJOG in June, was suprised on the trip how much time some people needed to put into adjusting there bikes after every day's ride had to do nothing to the RT apart from pedal and enjoy the scenery :-)
