I've also stepped to the darkness...

Gave some love to both Mr Lou's

This pretty sums up my view about this subject.
I'm 60, still riding Choppers, messing with cars, gals (my wife ) and booze. Life will slow you down a bit but more active you are, happier and healthier you'll be. Don't ever stop. Train karate, go to gym, go to see gigs and dance like nobodys watching you, and most of all don't give a fuck.
That's actually almost the best part being in the last quarter of your life. Not giving a fuck. If you have done so in earlier life, after fifty you usually start not to.
I think the best part of getting old is to see that your kids get along in life and to see grandkids grow up. Small things make me happy.

Shit happened last sunday. Blew out rear tire at around 100km/h. Lucky to be in one piece, I was able to keep the bike upright and luckily there wasn't incoming traffic just at that time. Took me several hundred meters to tame the bike which was swerving from lane to lane...

got me a "new" daily transporter

Got me a new set of wheels with thick tires. No lowprofiles for me.

about -77

Had a fuckin great weekend

Looks like I've been here for a bit over 15 yrs, where the fekkin' time goes...? At that time I was in search of proper bootcut jeans. https://forum.ironheart.co.uk/topic/3489/2010-edition-iron-heart-triple-works-edition-waywt/281?_=1755708022258

@ZackB said in Show us your boots:

@68degreesorless hahaha fair enough, I was like holy shit that’s insane. I think @injunjack thought the same!

well, yes and no, I never let my boots to get into that state, I take care of them before they look shit like I've been doing last 40+ years.

I'm an asshole all the time but I try to behave here

My heart cries when I see boots neglected and abused to get instant "patina". I don't get the hype and competition who can fuck up their pricy gear fastest. To each their own, I guess....

you'll need something else for winter in there... As said Iron Rangers are not for cold snowy winters, and I doubt the other ones aren't warm enough in below zero temps.

What kind of Winter? Northern FennoScandia or southern Europe? There's a difference.

Good to know, I'll be in London next June...

@NickD
Easily...

@SFMCfranky i think all of us in our 50’s and older are leaking fluids, valves need adjusting, and shouldn’t discuss our exhaust.

I resemble this remark

I've done that kind of shortening of the body to my original 70's Lee Rider. It was at that point unworn, untouched. I was able to do it with a regular sewing machine. Not a biggie...
