Currently, I've got a little over 21,000 miles on it. Total weight of the loaded recumbent is around 90 pounds (including water). I finished my 14th ocean-to-ocean tour across the USA back in early December of last year. I'm getting ready to go out again March 02nd for maybe a 9,000 mile trip around the USA. Last year's distance was around 11,000 miles. This will be my 15th extensive self-supported tour since 1993. I have been pretty well touring almost full-time with my bicycle ministry doing servant evangelism and disaster relief. Since 1993, I've cycled almost 166,000 miles in the USA and in Canada. This is my second recumbent. My first recumbent was a Lightning T-Bolt SWB. Before that, my first 4 bikes were hybrids that were made by Schwinn and Specialized.
