34 now
Started on a 1974 cb360 when I was 13 on a old closed piece of highway in Missouri. First legal bike was a gs350 short lived onto a nighthawk 450 At 16. Never played in the dirt. My dad was cool and taught me to ride even though he hates bikes. My grandfather rode bikes for a living for a delevery company. Way before my memory, but I guess its in the blood.

Ok, you're a young fart too!

I wish I'd started riding when I was younger but I doubt I would have survived it. I'm too much of an adrenalin junky and I always pushed the limits when I was in my teens and 20's. Now I'm a little calmer but don't have quite as good a reflexes as I did then either. Still get a pucker moment now and then and hopefully I'll survive the FZ when I get it.

I'm 48 and been riding on the road since I was 20. ( I must admit my riding was very limited for about 12 years for some stupid unknown reason)

I'm 58 and have been riding since 1971. But I'm a young 58. Sort of like it's fucking cold out here, but it's a dry cold.
