Re:Age 10 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
Latest average up to (TOTE)Pg-25

174- People adding up to 8196 years.
8196 divided by 174 == 47.103 Years Average Age of Riders.

Oldest Rider at a young 71 is LOADMASTER (may you have many more years Bro )
Youngest Rider at an old 20 is RoadHammer (only 20 more years till ya start making the oldman noises when ya get out of bed Bro)He has one BAD sled to (awesome paint)

Seems that alot of us went on an average hyatis of 15-25 years untill getting back in the saddle. Guess raising the kids were important to us. Most of us grew up on dirt bikes and graduated onto bigger and better bikes.

Re:Age 10 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
51, Took off about 6yrs back in the late 80's and bought a boat. sold that and got a goldwing,(mid 90's) had that for about 5yr's. Took another break. Then bought an 09 650 Silverado last July .Felt so good to get back riding I traded it for the R Jan 09. And here we go again.

Re:Age 10 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
I have my Medicare card. Did not do much while raising family and working. Turned 60 and bought a V Star and then a Road Star. Kept the V star as a spare for my 71 year old brother when he visits
