One of my favorite events each year is the Highest Mileage Contest.  This year was no exception.  I’m blown away by the miles that some people rack up.  Then I’m just plain jealous.  But, I only admit to being envious.  You get the idea.  Without further fan fare - 119,366 miles was enough for this year’s prize.  The winner was none other than Santa Cruz HOGster, Jose De La Torre, riding his 2002 Harley-Davidson Screamin’ Eagle Road King.  Aside from being his daily commuter, he and his steed have been to Sturgis a couple of times, the Colorado Rockies, Four Corners, and a few other choice spots.  Kuddos to Jose and his wife Terry.  Those are BIG miles.  Lots of stories must go with them miles.  Wouldn’t we all love to have click off that kinda saddle time.  Ride safe and enjoy the journey.
