Old rider, new member from across the pond

Post by mike712 »

Hi all,

I am 75 years old and have been riding since I was 25. I have a 2012 Silverwing because wife said I was too old for a real bike but I could get a scooter to run around town on. (boy did i fool her) Had my scoot for just over a year. I wont be offering much advice as I am not mechanically inclined.

Hello & welcome to the forum Mike. :)
I'd guess you have had quite a selection of 'real' bikes in your time.
