    The old 144 has a new rider....my father has equipped himself and now has about 2 hours on the baby Husky. Making memories :)

    I plan to still be racing when I'm 70. It might still be on my 144, too!

    Good for Dad

    Kudos to the guy who hasn't thrown a leg over a bike in over 30 years.....a little vid of him just getting used to turning, braking, shifting all with a bunch of protective gear that I am sure he was never using back in the day..

    There are two guys in our club in their 80's that still race. One of them runs the 6hr hare scramble every year, and the other guy runs the 1hr MX races, and both of them put in some hard laps.

    I wouldn't put it past this guy to enter into a race or two NEXT season once he gets his comfort level this season...I'm with you....I only see ONE future and it involves racing as long as the body and mind is willing. This will be my first proper season....

    Congrats to your dad. Nothing like riding with your son. I rode with my son and with my grandson. It doesn't get any better,
    Remember it's not our age it's all in the wrist and twistie. How fast do you want to go.

    I will be 70 in Feb. and ride a 2016 Te300. I rode with my 42 year old son last summer and it's the first time we haven't disagreed about who is faster. Now I just bug him about how long it took him.
