    From 01st January 2024 to 31st December 2024 I rode 13825 miles on motorcycles. Yes I am sad enough to keep a log o_O.

    9082 of those were on my Street Triple (including 2300 miles on our trip to Jerez).
    4137 of those were on my Fireblade (which wasn’t ridden until the end of April as it was off the road whilst the fairings were painted).
    606 of those were on a Honda NC750 on our Canaries trip.

    I had some miscellaneous miles on the Kawasaki ZX4-RR :heart::heart: and the 2024 Fireblade SP too.

    For 2025 I would like to do some more touring and camping as I really enjoyed the three solo camping trips I did on my rest days from work this year and the trips to Gran Canaria and Spain were brilliant. I have also booked two track instruction days in May and July with Rapid Training.

    What did everyone else do in 2024 and what are your hopes and plans for 2025?

    Hi Mrs Visor, that's some miles on a motorcycle obviously you love riding.....I do on average around 8k per year that's including a European trip 2024 I and 2 mates went to central and southern Spain and back up through Portugal which was a 13 night hol with a couple of rest days which one mate wasn't happy about....other than that rides to Wales most weeks as and when the weather allowed and a trip to Hawes in Yorkshire for 3 nights. I lost one of my mates in November who'd had a kidney transplant which wasn't a success and sadly died from organ failure. 2025 hopefully will be another trip abroad perhaps to Austria if at least one of my mates will come with me. I have a tiger 900gtpro and absolutely love it and perhaps swop that for a new one !!!! Take care.

    Happy touring in 2025! I am sorry to hear about the loss of your mate in November, I am sure you'll carry some good memories of them on your trips.

    Our plans for 2025:
    Get the needed kilometers for the first service on my new Rocket with some small trips in our area.
    April: A short trip to Bosnia (Banja Luka and Sarajevo)
    May: A 9 day trip to Romania.
    June: A long weekend trip to the Schwarzwald in Germany.
    September: A journey to the USA and two weeks with a rental V8 US muscle car (Ford Mustang or Dodge Challenger).
    The time in-between we will do many weekend trips in Austria.;)

    As inspiring as ever, Markus. I hope you and your wife have a fabulous 2025 on both two and four wheels!! It's been many years since I have been to the Schwarzwald, but it is definitely somewhere I would like to go again, this time on a bike.

    @Mrs Visor:
    As every year my wife :heart: has already "structured" our biking year. Some accomodations are booked too. We are really looking forward to start our biking season again.;)
