Welcome to the forum and thanks for renewing! I don't know if it's too old to sleep in tents, but maybe it's more that having a nice bed and shower is hard to beat! Keep putting on the miles!!

Thanks for stepping up and making the commitment towards our club for another year. FYI: hotels can most definitely be worth the money depending on the condition of the spine.

They say that if you never slow down you never grow old. I soooo hope that is true!!

The older I get, the Faster I was!

The older I get, the Faster I was!

I just watched a video of a group of adventure riders riding over Black Bear pass and down into Telluride. To those who might read this who have done this ride I .

I was going to say that I wouldn't be caught dead trying to ride this, but on reflection that seems to me to be the only way you would find me should I try.

I used to be so fast not even I could catch myself!

This statement takes on a much different meaning if considered from the perspective of a pilot heading towards the ground at Mach 2 in an out of control aircraft.

Or riding a motorcycle on a twisty road with steep cliffs awaiting that little bit of extra exuberance. You know the trio: Tess, Toss, and Tyrone.

Well, in one way of looking at it, that pilot is likely to not grow any older.

Don't know if this is the same video, but old[er] guys at altitude with heavy bikes is mighty tough. Makes a smaller bike (e.g., GS310) look better ...
