Was it like O'flynn's horse and skidded to a stop in front of a bar?

how many thumps is that ?

25,000 miles
divided by 50 miles per hour (rough average speed)
equals 500 hours rough running time
times 60 minutes in an hour
equals 30,000 minutes rough running time
times 2500 rpm

75,000,000 Revs (rough estimate)

So, you could say somewhere around 18 to 20 million thumps
(depending on your travel type and average road speeds)

Average road speed wouldn't make any difference figuring your mostly in high gear.

Bill,

??

;)

I guarantee I use more thumps than Bill to cover the same distance

At 30 mph it would take twice and long as 60mph but it would be the same amount of thumps.

Nice milestone Tincanman. I hope to see that on mine some day! Congrats!

Title: Re: oh ya!! mile stones!!
Post by Oldfeller on 08/23/10 at 20:03:51

yer right, cycles vs strokes and all ....

36 million to 40 million thumps

=========================

Bill, at 30 mph aren't you in third or 4th gear?

I can't wait to start thumping again and adding miles to my odometer so my bike is broken in as well.. ;) kim
