      Yep

      And since you're too young to ride I think you should give your bike to me to look after till you are old enough

          So I am still in my thirties? Funny I don't remember thirty as aching this much.
          No Carl...it is only when you are in your 60's that the rule applies to dropping 20 years, hence the reason your memory is beginning to slip. Take a couple of aspirins (if you're not on a daily dose already) and stock up on BenGay

              I guess im the opposite (for now anyways) ill be 27 in September 2012, and my wife says i act like im 60.(even tho she will be 36 in September too(Shh)) i like everything stock.. i like old big cars( my 87 grand marquis and 83 fifth avenue were my favorite!) i was never into loud bass thumping garbage(sorry) or partying. i like to mostly keep to myself(except around true friends, which are far and few in between) My wife gets irritated because she likes the new hip/modern things that i mostly cant stand. i guess that's why for my first motorcycle i chose a 1978 instead of all the other cycle's at my fingertips... just something about the style of these machine's (and the cars) from the past i was born to late to enjoy have always intrigued a passion in me.. i even have dreams sometimes about what it would of been like to be my age 30 years or so ago..

                I'm 48, but I feel like 23. I've been taking night rides lately, becaause that's all I have time for. As I dismount to get her back into the garage, I quiver with the joy of springtime and the buzz of the motor.
                Hill? What hill? I didn't see any hill! Why wasn't there a sign? And where are my keys?

                  53 until I am on a bike and in the middle of no where and I get on the extreme edge of where what I am on should be driven.
                  To fix the problem one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed.

                        If that's an old car what does that make my 68 Mustang!?!? In my neighborhood there are several Model T's running around.

                        As for me I turned a young 50 back on the fourth. My son (who needs to still sign up) is 17 and got his first XS1100 a year ago.

                                IF you think you're aching in your thirties now, just wait until you hit the half-century mark and IF you're in bad physical condition, you'll wish you were back in your good ole aching thirties...ALL those crazy things you did to your body when you were young will come back to haunt you and you will "pay the piper" for burning the candle at both ends...
