Great pics Mike! B&W is cool
People can't believe my bike is near 20 years old, and they love the bling along with that strangely beautiful engine
I can honestly say at 62 my biological and chronological age aren't in sync, I feel like I'm 45 yrs old most days, some days I feel older but never 62. I'm lighter now than when I was 19 and in my first years of pumping iron.
3 years ago I did a hypertrophy cycle and muscled up to 210 lbs, I didn't like it.. most of my adult life I was 215-220 body weight and never had much fat, I did gain some BF while doing that growth cycle though.
I find carrying more weight to be more a hindrance than advantage, so I strive for strength over muscle size and feel much better. There's a big difference running at 175 lbs vs 215, unnecessary ballast just slows me down and makes things harder on joints.
To date I still have hair covering the melon, though it's thin.. my face and neck show decades of working in the sun. My GF says she respects the way I 'own' my age.. that is, I don't try and look younger by doing anything special. I laugh at that saying 'what the hell am I going to do?'
We should strive to be the best version of ourselves and not compare to others. I do realize I'm a physical outlier on the edge of the bell curve, but my lifestyle isn't for everybody.
Mad respect to all the 'older' men and women who get out into the wind and actually live!!
Too many people sit and waste away their precious short time here on Earth.
