Since retiring in 2007 I've had two knee surgeries, two shoulder surgeries, my gall bladder out, multiple bouts with kidney stones, arthritis in the hands and Aleve is my go-to "vitamin". I bought a Nordic Track Elliptical that I try to use daily, go bird watching, fishing, hunting and ride my CB as much as possible. Don't give into the discomfort, go, fight, win! Goin' on 69 and loving it.

There's this guy they call The Ferret and he's been riding motorbikes since the motors were steam powered. Then there's Redbirds; he had to carve the wheels of his first bike out of Georgia's Red Top Mountain boulders. The Powerdogg grew up distilling his own fuel for his Triumph Model H, but he used to drink half of it so he never went too far. Finally, although they weren't here this year and I didn't meet them, I hear the combined age of the Aussies has to be measured using Carbon-14.
I tell ya'... Get off the lazy-boy, hang up the fluffy slippers, get your gear on, get on the bike and (at your pace) RIDE THE S=1T OUT OF IT!
DO NOT GO GENTLE! See you at Eureka Springs!
