I said old, and I am.. Will be 80 in October. Got my first bike, a 1948 Harley 45 in 1950, and have had some kind of bike ever since. Got my first BMW, a R50 in 1960 and have had just about every model at one time or another. My old standby is my 1983 R100RT which now has about 60,000 miles. I just last week, bought a 1990 K75LT showing 16,800 miles. I really didn't want it, and certainly didn't need it, but the price was just too low to resist. I'll likely sell both soon, as I have only put 85 miles on the RT this year, and summer is about over. I know, that it is time for me to "hang it up" but just can't give in just yet. I've been all over the US; Most of Mexico; and a good part of Canada on two wheel's; with only one mishap which landed me in a hospital in Paige AZ very near the Grand Canyon. I was on a RT100; pulling a trailer Did not make it to the canyon that trip, but did a few years later..
You might see me somewhere/sometime.
Ride safe
