You couldn't round it down a bit, say by 10 - 15 years?

Can I vote if my only vintage bike is a Norton? I looked at a TR6 a few months ago, but it went for a little more than I was willing to pay. Oh, and I confess to having a longtime desire for a 441 Victor Special.

Not to worry, Dog, somebody's gotta kick our bike when we can't anymore.

And if the youngsters get smart mouthed or know-it-allish, I have a simple reply.

We made it this far. There is no guarantee they will.

When you post "rounded off" I think of a head of a Hex Bolt. My head is rounded off, but I never knew it until my hair fell out! Got to keep it original, no wig for this old man!.

I quit having birthdays (or at least quit celebrating them) when I turned 29. After that I would celebrate the anniversary of my 29th birthday and would claim to be 29. I have had more anniversarys now than birthdays.

You know you're old when you get in the bathtub and your balls float.

Thats why I take showers.
