:) Its' me again.
I have eight years to go to get into the 70+ category, but you guys riding into your '70s makes me feel real good.
I figure I have a good 10-15 years of riding left now that we discovered the wonder of the third wheel. I was basically done riding before the trike.
Been riding since I was 12. Got the Tri in July 8000 miles later I will be 72 in a couple weeks
70+ riders

Put about 13K miles on it so far and enjoying it. Different but still in the wind.
Not 70 yet, will be in another year and half
All for now Trampas

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
Congrats, I can't say any of that! Actually done all of the above, plus ate dirt, inhaled asbestos, Freon, and burnt rubber and lots of exhaust fumes75 on the 4th, feel like 55!!! No aches/pains/medication as yet!! Never smoked/drank/used any drugs and I think that is what has served me well!!

Good for you brother! I had a college buddy that did all of the above, too much, way too much, in the name of living and well traded off for an early demise; before he even reached 60.75 on the 4th, feel like 55!!! No aches/pains/medication as yet!! Never smoked/drank/used any drugs and I think that is what has served me well!!

Through Jesus Christ, I a sinner am saved. Not by my doing but through his doing by his sacrifice and Blood Shed on the Cross. His gift to all mankind that will only believe and accept him by Faith. Through his Death and Resurrection I am Saved by Grace and someday I will be with our Lord in Heaven forever.

No longer riding, memories, memories
69 yrs old but age had nothing to do buying a trike. I'm in great health but I'm not getting any taller. gave up the Goldwings and my wife feels more secure at stops now! only time I laid a motorcycle down was at a stop sign on our 2nd GW. yes, she was on the bike. she didn't think it was funny and I was embarrassed. fellow riders didn't let me get off the hook lightly.
Kansas old rider
Been riding since I was 8 - 9 years old, I've had about everything over the years.
But I'm moving up on 76 and now have 14 Triglide and a Hondo Shadow and ride any time I get chance.
This year wife and I have been CO,OK,AR,MO,IL,KY,TN,NC,OK and lots of KS roads since we live in KS.
Ride on
Been there , done it a few times.....69 yrs old but age had nothing to do buying a trike. I'm in great health but I'm not getting any taller. gave up the Goldwings and my wife feels more secure at stops now! only time I laid a motorcycle down was at a stop sign on our 2nd GW. yes, she was on the bike. she didn't think it was funny and I was embarrassed. fellow riders didn't let me get off the hook lightly.
Why is it when you drop your scoot, there is always an audience? And now everyone has a camera phone....
