Here's my funny story about this. I was sitting in a local watering hole and got up to go to the bathroom and while I was walking back to my seat another feller (kind of a friend) ask me: "Say Les do you ride your bike much?".
I knew what he was getting at. He's a non-biker and can't understand why anybody would ride one....and a few of our friends all bought Harley's back in 2000 to 2004. They rode a bout 1,000 miles a year, then either sold them or parked them. He and the other two dickheads that were sitting with him, were getting ready to chastize me for waisting money on a motorcycle.
Anyway, I said "Well the last two years (since I've bought a touring bike) I've rode over 11,000 miles each year..........and I don't go on any trips, I just ride around local. (local in Texas is a 100 mile radius)". He about spit his beer out, I mean water and said 11,000 per year? I said sure that's what it's been. He said he didn't even drive his car 11,000 miles a year......and that includes a trip to Florida and Indianna each year to see his family.
It was funny to me anyways.
