I will be 54 soon but I don’t feel 54. I credit cycling for keeping me young but sometimes I go dang you are almost 54 :lol:

I'm 66 and soon to be 67. Mentally I don't feel 66 but there are days physically I do. I haven't been able to ride in a long time at the point to change that now; so, I'm hoping riding again will make me get back the feeling of not being 66. :)

The other 2-wheeler. The one that can actually climb. At age 75 this will probably be my last Ducati. OTOH I'm jonesin' for another pedal bike. Looking at Basso.

I'm turning 53 in the summer and am just a recreational cyclist on an entry level hardtail. Mentally it varies. Most days I'm entrusted with the accountability of a 5 year old but am otherwise way too crotchety for my age.

56-60 - I hope to ride into my 60's 70's and 80's - Well Done!

somebody should have a poll about the Mental Age of 50+ers! :D



Where are all the trucks, boyz? :foo:

Who needs trucks? We got bikes and a station wagon that will fit two bikes inside, without pulling wheels or fenders!

As far as mental age, my wife and I differ on my proper response!

OOOHHH yeah, all that technology just hanging out in the airstream! I’d have a hard choice between one of those, a Vincent, or a Norton Commander!

Just right age to ride the bike, go fishing at the jetties and have a good cigar & bourbon when I get home!
