So what mileage have you done this year?

I'd guess on the blade it'll be about 4-500 roughly, just not been feeling it to go out on a day off after riding at work.
On the works bike it'll be 8k and increasing til the 22nd.

 

What work do you do mate?

 

SP2 150

ZZR 2500

 

4137 this year, from March MOT until now

 

Only about 800 unfortunately...just been a strange year or two...iomtt next year so I'll do a thousand miles enjoying that 10 days

 

IoMTT oh yeah

My son and I are booked. We marshall every year. It will be his first time over on his own bike. He’ll be having a ball

 

I was over 2years ago but only for practice...can't wait to go next year...but I must sort this downshift out..it will.drive me mad

 

Bike cop...

 

I'd have thought police motorcyclists would do more than that??

 

Around 4k usually.

 

Depends on the day, we can go 1 mile and end up seizing a car for no insurance, waiting on recovery usually an hr, ride another 2 -3 miles and stop something else, another 10 minutes, not alot of miles in a day sometimes.
Mutual aid to surrounding forces inc Met Pol, SEG stuff, Bikesafe to name a few.
One of the best jobs in the world if you enjoy riding a bike
My job bikes just clocked 23800 on a 67 plate. Shifts and time in workshops for service/repairs puts me on another bike too so it's not all the miles we do, plus we have 5/330s X5, off road CRF, all depends what we're in to do on any given week..

 

Does it not take away the enjoyment of riding for pleasure riding for a living?

 

Cool. I would have loved to have done this kind of job.
A question, does it not piss you guys off when watching a movie, only to see the bike cops get another bum rap from the script writers...? It seems they always have stupid accidents, never able to ride as fast as the villan/protagonist etc....

 

Yea that annoys me. I hate it when in tele if they need to portray a character as a bit iffy or on the wrong side of the social line then he'll be given a motorbike.

 

It does sometimes, hence the low miles I've done on the blade but it's an escape too, switch off n ride..

 

Not really, we hold our own..

 

500 on the NC30 and less than a 100 on the Blade as it’s still up on stands in bits whilst trying to source carb O rings.

 

3090 miles this year, hopefully more next year as long as a trip to Spain isn't postponed again.

 

that's not enough

 

You're not using the NC30 enough, you need to sell it to me.
