miles I mean...

How 'bout 50,000?

I'm along way off from either marker, probably nearing 25k with the Calfee, but I figure we have some real crankers here that might have reached such mileage on one bike.

Over 41,000 miles on my 4-1/2 year old Ottrott. Still running strong; ie, the bike not me. :D

I have ridden over 50K miles on a frame that I built myself. I used it for racing to start off and then for training, only for it to become my rain bike.

39 Cross has my Spectrum Ti that when I sold it had 120,000 miles on it and it is still running strong.

My 85' Geurciotti SLX has over 100,000 miles. The rear drive side chainstay finally cracked last year and needs to be replaced. I found (2) SLX stays but need someone to do it at a reasonable price. Anyone one up to it on this forum? Frame has now been stripped and will be repainted after both stays are replaced. Otherwise, the frame is in excellent condition.

My seven year old CSI only has around 30,000 miles. But that is still more than my 15 year Specialize Sirrus which is at 23,000.

I skipped over the "miles I mean part" and was reading 100,000, 50,000, 25,000 and almost fell off my chair. It took a couple seconds before I realized that you meant miles. ha ha.

I don't belong in the conversation. Too much time on the dirt trails to rack up that kind of mileage.

Not me, not my shop, but Yellow Jersey in Madison, WI does frame repair, www.yellowjersey.org. That's cool. I had a 1982 Honda Accord with 104,000 on it once, does that count?
