I've also stepped to the darkness...

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

Gave some love to both Mr Lou's

@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 don't, so I'ma bit worried about you youngsters if ya feel like exhausted diesel train.

well, I'd buy C4 'Vette with money you can waste on those overpriced silver thingys, but that's just me.
Maybe this belongs to unpopolar opinions.

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

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...

Yes, old original finnish plate to this bike from early 50's. Bike is from 1925...with few upgrades
