New Bohemia, VA | I ride a slow steady pace, meaning that I ride everyday, but not a lot of miles everyday. When I saw this, and IF I was retired, I could take two months and rack up some miles. That'll be the winner of this deal, or someone like Steve Roland who has the drive to put 10,000 miles on in 10 days. My guess is the winner will have well over 30,000 miles on the bike and the second and third runner up with around 27,000 miles and 25,000 miles, more than my current annual miles. I believe I'm the only published highest mile Vision, however, I believe there is a few out there that has me topped or is topping me in miles per year. My best mileage per year was the first year at right at 30,000. I've dropped off to about 23,000 miles a year, meaning I'll probably fall short of 175,000 miles come November. Sorry to rattle on, as always. But, I would think Steve would be at the dealer as we speak signing the papers as he's plotting out his next four IBA rides over the next two months. Go Steve. |

If I had free time and gas money...but i will disagree with one thing. I believe you are the outright highest mileage Vision.  |

Belding Michigan | I believe you are the highest mileage and they should recognize that but sadly they don't. However your name get bandied around a lot when some one says that they want a bike that will hold up for the long haul. I trot your mileage along with a few other on the site out and say this is what a Victory does. All my current riding buddies now ride Victory's and they are all in love with the choice. Thanks for setting the pace that means with reasonable care my bike will last the rest of my life at the rate I can ride. Archie |

Central Maryland | One would think you could rig up a contraption to accumulate those miles...
...without actually going anywhere. And get a free bike out of the deal.

I was surprised when I read the rules that it wasn't more like the IBA rides where gas receipts, or at least some sort of paper trail showing that distance was traveled not just dyno miles. |
