Where are the over 70'ers? I'm 74 and I'm not old. I think I have about 10 or 12 more good years on the K9 Wee and then I may buy a new one.

I'm a few years away from that. I'm already in the wrong spot on the poll though.

Default Not young - Not old

Well, I'm just 62 years old and i hope to be riding for many years to come. How many? I don't know, but I'll ride on two wheels as long as my balance is good, then switch to a "hack" (sidecar setup) after that.
My goal is to ride "cross-country" during my 100th year on this earth, but just in case I don't make the "100th" goal, I'm planning a recon route in the next two years.

Here I thought I was younger than most on one of these bikes (35) and now I know it's slightly true, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised at any age rider I find out there.
