I'm 64 chronogically, but I feel like I'm in my 40s...and sometimes I ride like I was in my 20s.

I'm one of the younger geriatrics. I'll be 52 in a few sleeps' time.

59. Learned in part on a foot clutch HD. Had lots of the "on the tank" rides on my brother's HD's and Indians. He is now 71 riding a little Ninja,and a 450 KTM. He is the one who knows how to use newspaper for extra insulation when riding cross country in the winter.

Double nickels as of yesterday.

Means I'm finally able to play Senior Amateur events on the links in Scotland.

Can hardly wait!

I'll be 50 in a couple of months, don't feel much different than when I was 20, well, bigger, balder and creakier but not different...

52 here and like Steven, I don't feel much different than I did 20+ years ago.
Although now it takes me longer to do what I used to do for much longer.

I can say that I am TWICE the man that i was back then.
That's what the scales tell me anyway.

Welcome, Olwasisnam. I am nearing 59 years and have been riding for 44 years. You will find a lot of folk here with bike knowledge as well as a sense of humor. I learn from and enjoy these forums.
Later, Steve
