some of our older associates may still be fumbling with their reading glasses... Nope, don't need them for the 'puter, but I use them if I'm going to be on it for long. Actually, feel pretty good, although most mornings I sound like a giant bowl of Rice Krispies when I get up and walk across the room. Makes the wife giggle....tells me "I wasn't awake, but after all that snappin' and poppin'...I am now." Age...73, and ride every chance I get. I don't put in those 600-700 mile days anymore when riding on a trip, but still feel comfy with a good 400+. |

Your poll don't go high enough. You need a 61-70 a 71=80 aand a 81 to 90.
I'd fall in the middle one at coming up on 79 in September.

58 when I bought my first I/S, an 01. Now at 67 I have two, a 99 Black/Red I/S and a 2K Tourer, same color. Try to ride both daily, even if not for very far. Love the long trips, try to stay into the
4-500 mile/day range. In no hurry to get there or anywhere else for that matter. June 26, 2011, will celebrate 46 years, same lovely woman.

53 now. . . . . I just had turned 44 when I drove her home. You didn't ask, but it would make another good poll; I was 8 when I first drove a two wheel bike with a motor on it. And, one of these years I'm going to finally get it right.

Russ, how's the respiration doing these days? Was wondering if you're still tied to the hose....hasta suck. As for any summer trips for me, not going to happen. Had to cancel my reservations, did it early enough so hopefully the room would be made available. My lady love has reached the point where she can't travel, and I don't have anyone that can come stay for about three weeks. As a result, you won't be getting a visit following InZane....at least not from me. See....your luck is still holding out. Unless things change, InZaneX may have been my last. Hope not, but I can't see anything changing...only getting worse. Take care, would love to spend some time with you and Wayne, I'll miss his Scotch/soda this year.  |
