When are you too old to ride?
« on: June 15, 2010, 02:33:05 PM »
Since I'm turning 61 in a couple of weeks this question has been running through my head a lot lately!

"Am I getting too old to ride?"

I found the answer in a birthday card that I got yesterday!

On the front is a picture of a VERY old guy sitting on a scooter, wearing a helmet,  with a big grin on his face.

On the inside it says "As long as the speed you ride is higher than your age, you're good to go!"

I'm good to go!

LOL, never thought of it that way!  I guess I should be good to go for awhile yet ... unless the speed I ride gets me, first! :nervous: :P ;)

Happy (early) Birthday, Tommy! :beerchug:

Happy almost birthday Tommy.  Appreciate the philosophy offered in that card too.  We'll all still have several good years to go that way :2vrolijk_21: .
