I was a big biker 20+ years ago … did 4000+ miles/yr for many years. Now I rarely do more than a few hundred. Still ride 2 of the bikes from back then … a Merlin road bike (titanium) and a specialized mountain bike. My other 2 were a touring bike and a beater bike for city riding (one I would not cry over if stolen). Still have the tourer just don’t do multi day trips any more.
