                That mainly depends on ATTITUDE. We all know 30 & 40 year old OF's. I'd say for anybody that can hobble, crawl & drag themselves onto a two wheel motobike that they don't have anything to worry about. When aches & pains & meds & inability to balance keep you off then maybe its time to start thinking OF.

                You got a long way to go to get to that point ..................... and Happy Birthday to ya.

                        Amen to that! I know 70-year-old young men, and 25-year-old old men ... attitude plays a BIG part ...

                        Happy Birthday! Wishing you a quick recovery!

                          When you get older than me.

                          Happy birthday buddy. I saw it was your day this morning but I've been covered up at work and don't get to the laptop a lot. That's a GOOD thing.

                              Hey Harry!
                              Didn't get to check in here yesterday...
                              Just saw you snuck in another year on us!
                              Hope the family spoiled you good yesterday, bro.

                              Good to see you're a fellow May birthday, too!
                              Mine's may 31st.
                              You asked when you were considered an old fart?
                              Normally, I'd say yer as young as ya feel...but understand right now that probably doesn't apply to your situation... Lol
                              I'll be 52 on the 31st... can ya beat that? If so, then you probably qualify.
                              Happy birthday, and get well soon wishes.
