Joining the party
« on: April 18, 2021, 11:23:15 AM »
Well at the end of this month (29th) I will be 63 and after 43 years of driving a truck of some sort the last 10 in a dump truck I am pulling the plug and retiring, now I'll have to find a ice bike so I can get out a little further when the itch hits. I'm loving the Zero SR and it has put the bug back in me but it is limited on how far I can go, so the search continues  :boozing: hope to hit a rally or two someday.

I love being retired   :grin:
How big's your Burgman? I'd think you could range far and wide on any of them.

Knew a guy that completed an iron butt on a 650. He was in his upper 60s and had two previous heart attacks.
