There is already an "age" thread and poll on the go, but I'll jump in.
The article made me smile. It was good reading - and yes, I'm older, wealthier and more conservative too - and loving every minute of it
I'm also within spitting distance of age 80 with no plans to slow down or give up any of my small fleet. I was out on the CB today for a rip along one of our winding coastal roads - and plan to do it again tomorrow.
September is a great time of year here as most of the tourists have left and the roads are nearly empty.
Here, motorcyclists are welcomed with open arms by the tourist industry and you never hear of anyone being turned away or treated badly. Thankfully, that stigma has vanished.
This is a bike destination in the summer and when shiny Goldwings and Harleys show up that means $$$.
Our annual Labor Day Wharf Rat Rally in the tiny town of Digby draws 25-30 thousand bikers and there is never any rowdiness or such bad behaviour.
That many bikes also means $$$ and the town loves it!
