Tomorrow is an anniversary of sorts , 50 years riding street bikes legally . Seriously , not something a 25 year old Dusty would have ever predicted . Still have all my fingers and toes , which is really amazing all things considered

At 25 the idea of dying on a motorbike was scary , now the idea of NOT dying on a motorbike is scary.

Although I hope you won't die on a motorbike....

That's a fair milestone Dusty, congrats.
I'm 8 years behind, 'don't suppose I'll ever catch up..

The plan is to go out in a spectacular crash showing some young sportbike guys the fast way over La Veta pass after a night of debauchery involving a couple of CU coeds on my 95th B day

Now that you mention it, I'll have my 50th this year, too. But there was a hiatus for me while I was busy with other things.

I would settle for 'going out' during the night of debauchery with the CU coeds.

radguzzi · « **Reply #8 on:** April 21, 2018, 05:48:00 PM »

How ta go you old fart...!

I too am coming up on the Golden Annyiversary, you did say "Legally"... And just as an added FYI, thirty-five years on Guzzi.

Ahh, please do not go out that way.

Best,
Rob

Gotcha beat, youngster.. but congrats.

Hell, I have belly button lint older than you are.

Dharma Bum · « **Reply #11 on:** April 21, 2018, 07:47:01 PM »

Beat you to it by 8 months!

Congrats, old-timer!!! Tell us about racing the board tracks again...😆

guzzisteve · « **Reply #13 on:** April 21, 2018, 07:54:46 PM »

Gone in a flash, just like that. It'l be 50 that I bought the bike, not when I road it, that's next year.

Happy Anniversary!

I was kinda interested in getting a sense of the "old...." part of your screen name, but I don't do math on the weekend.

Roebling3 · « **Reply #16 on:** April 21, 2018, 08:26:26 PM »

Congratulations, Dusty; and good fortune, always.
I'm here to ruining the demographic for all you youngsters. Legally, in October it will be 68 years.
B4 that even my mom didn't know. R3~
BTW: I've seen board track mc racing 'LIVE". Wazzat Freddy Marsh out there?

How's that go? "If I knew I was gonna live this long I would have taken better care of myself".

Who's Dusty????

Jeff

Ps many more miles to you my friend!!

Zoom Zoom · « **Reply #22 on:** April 22, 2018, 05:38:38 AM »

I'm pretty sure 54 is his birth year. So, he started riding when he was 14. Yeah, that's it...............

BTW guzzi4me, it's not who's Dusty. It's Dusty WHO???

Well, here's to another 50!

(x5)

I've been riding that long, though not "legally." I got my start on the power line roads and had a good run-up to the endorsement test.

Beerman · « **Reply #25 on:** April 22, 2018, 03:37:30 PM »

Another reason to like this forum - it makes me feel young!

Congratulations, Dusty.
