How Old ?

[Hooli]

Another thread I can 'lose'. 47 & only started riding when I turned 30.

Very impressive knowledge & mileage for someone who started 'late'.           

Just making up for lost time.
I wanted a bike at 16 & my mum gave me a car to distract me. Couldn't afford to learn till I was 30 as I was doing silly things like running two cars or a modified LR for weekends on pay & play sites etc etc.

Completely voluntary, but I'm trying to figure out who's our oldest member still riding, so if you feel inclined to bung your age down in a post, that'd be appreciated.

I'm only doing this out of interest after reading one of Roo's posts saying he's 75 in April & just wondering if he's our eldest.

Cheers Kiwicol,  having giggle here with the possibilty of being the oldest still peddling !!!   Yeah 75yrs on the 10th April ! and riding with licence for 60 years !
On bike number 56 now,all Japanese stuff starting on 80cc Yamaha YG1...then on to yds3's etc etc.... Getting harder to get to the edge of the tyres these days.

   Bobbie saw this topic and said you act like a child most of the time.
Never lose your inner child I told her.

Agree, just be a child, appreciate fun not other crap,that is  politics, religion, peer pressure,status symbols,especially other peoples criticism of you.I like my life, its tougher the older you get, set goals, buy new toys.Sorry to rant but having fun is the key.

We need to get some more younger blokes onto 1400s or maybe they are just all on faceache.

[KiwiCol]

Ya need wisdom to get a GSX1400 and wisdom comes with  . . .  ?

[grog]

Cant imagine young blokes liking a 14, doing adjustments needed, my youngies at work only ever say, so bloody clean Mate, never say its a nice bike. They prefer pocket rockets or Hardlys

I was told if I hadn't grown up by the time I was 50 I didn't have too.

According to the ORG standard, i am a young one at 47 years old

I know a lad who's mid/late 20s & on about his fourth 14 - silly sod keeps crashing them. He loves them.

So after all this research - who gits the old fart award?

[KiwiCol]

Well, it appears it's Roo, 75 this year. 


Really thought Notty would have pipped him by 5 or more years . . .

I can't even get his dad to rejoin! It's Moonie's lad, if you remember him from the old ORG.
