[Bonez]

Lets just say I'm somewhere in the 40-50 bracket and leave it at that ah?

[Blackbird]

Old enough to know better at 57 :2thumbsup

Biking (and one other thing) is what keeps you young. :o

Why? What, apart from abstract statistical information, does it tell you?
Physically and mentally, I'm about 40.
Emotionally, I'm still a teenager.
And my chronological age is something else...

Actually, I usually just tell people I'm 103, which is close. :crazy:

I had mine a few years ago. Kids think it's still happening. But hell what do the kids today know about 'happenings.' Most I have forgotten about and the ones I do remember I would sooner not.

[Jess]

Hooray for being 18 and a half!!!! :D
i feel green...
...and tired and already worn out. how the heck am i supposed to make it to forty if i'm this stuffed already???? :confused:

[Motoracer]

...and tired and already worn out. how the heck am i supposed to make it to forty if i'm this stuffed already????
Yep, know the feeling.

I'm 20 going on 21 next year.

[Blakamin]

Hooray for being 18 and a half!!!!
Did anyone notice that once you get over 30 the "and a half" bit disappears? :crazy:

[Joni]

Did anyone notice that once you get over 30 the "and a half" bit disappears? :crazy:

You said what I was thinking BK!
:2thumbsup

[Sniper]

Yep, know the feeling.

I'm 20 going on 21 next year.


I gave up counting when I was about 14. I rely on my folks and/or girlfriend.
For example, when I do something stupid the conversation usually starts with

"STUART, YOU ARE 19 YEARS OLD, NOW GROW UP AND START ACTING IT!"

It usually ends with me convulsing with laughter on the floor :lol: :lol: :lol: but at least I know how old I am!! :eek5:

:bleh: :stupid:

[erik]

You should've had the options 21-30, 31-40 etc. because as it is, if someone is 20, 30, or 40 they could go in the group above or below their age.

[Paul in NZ]

It not the age - its the mileage...

[Blakamin]

Thanks Paul.... now I feel over the hill! :beer:

[Gixxer]

Did anyone notice that once you get over 30 the "and a half" bit disappears? :crazy:

yeah, the 'and a half' does disappear, but today, talking to a nice lady at the jucie shop I lost a year as well. :stoogie:

[manuboy]

Finally old enough to appreciate my partner, my mates, my time, my freedom, the sun, the stars, the wind, my bike, the list goes on. Never ever want to go back to being a young 'un.... uh uh. :doobey:

[Two Smoker]

Im just a young whipper snapper at 19 years old, personally im hoping to make 21 :shifty: But who knows :disapint:

[bear]

So, in the motorcycling world does age equal maturity?
I'd only just got my full licence and the shops I went looking around to purchase a +250cc bike were all keen to let me ride 900's, even though I'd only ever ridden 250's. They reckoned I looked mature enough not to go nuts (I'm only 28). Not sure if they were just looking to off load stock though!?!
Personality maybe?

[toads]

yes well I am glad I'm passed the age of feeling uncertain about the future and that sort of thing, but am old enough to realise how fragile and precarious life is, I'm glad I'm not a young person anymore, as I am comfortable with myself as a person, never used to be.
I do feel the need to experience whatever life has to offer me while I am still able to do stuff, and not just be resigned to waiting to die in an armchair knitting booties or something.
each age has it's good points, but I'm glad of each year of health and relative happiness, it's all good

[Jackrat]

I'm 47,I'll be old when I get through a day without being amused or amazed.
I can't see that happening for a bit yet.
I don't want a sports car or a younger wife.I've been riding motorbikes an doing dumb shit my whole life,so I think I missed the mid life crisis.
Either that or I couldn't afford it. :rolleyes:

[Yamahamaman]

Well the graph is almost a bell curve :gob:
Quite surpising really.

[avgas]

but i still feel like im making up for lost time.
i remember the days when my birthdays meant something

[riffer]

I'm 37.

My kids reckon I'm old, my parents reckon I'm still young, and my wife just thinks I'm bloody immature...

[SPORK]

HAHAHAHAHA! I WIN! Too young to go on the charts! Sux0rs to you all! PWNED YOU UB3R N00BS GO CRY IN YOUR GARGRES!!! MWAUGHAHAHAHA!


Sorry:P

[NordieBoy]

HAHAHAHAHA! I WIN! Too young to go on the charts! Sux0rs to you all! PWNED YOU UB3R N00BS GO CRY IN YOUR GARGRES!!! MWAUGHAHAHAHA!


Sorry:P

Does your mummy know you're using her computer?



:P

[SPORK]

Does your mummy know you're using her computer?



:P

That offended me, because I have toiled for literally years, and I bought myself my $2,500 computer. It is really awesome too. So show some respect, eh? :calm:

Nah, I'm down with that, nigga. Peace out.

[riffer]

That offended me, because I have toiled for literally years, and I bought myself my $2,500 computer.
Huh. Shoulda kept using Mum's computer madcat. Then you could have bought yourself a tasty wee FXR150 new... :msn-wink:

[scumdog]

How come the second 50 years your body doesn't match your mind? and the teenage girls look just as good? but so do the 35 years olds?
And you KNOW not to do something 'cos it is going to hurt? but when you were a teenager it would still hurt but you did not have the brains to realise that? but all todays teenagers think they know it all and everything is new?
And sex is even better, don't have to 'prove' yourself!
And you don't buy lemons anymore (most of the time)
And when you say "gimme 15 quids worth of 4"X2" to a sixteen year old just to see them go "eh? whatever".
And you wear/ride what you want 'cos you don't give a fat rats arse what the tend/fashion/style is.
And you know being 'cool' is being your own person and doing what YOU want, - not what you THINK will make you look cool to others?
Yep, the 60's and 70's was pretty good but being 50+ is pretty good too, the cemetery is full of those that didn't get there!! :2thumbsup :rockon: :cool2:

[SPORK]

Huh. Shoulda kept using Mum's computer madcat. Then you could have bought yourself a tasty wee FXR150 new... :msn-wink:

Meh! Looking fo' a 250 now anyways
:ar15:

Aunty going halves with me on bike cost, so next year when I can get a real job and my license I shall endeaver on the quest to get myself some mother-ducking wheels!

[Hitcher]

Whaddayano. A bell curve!!

1957 rocks.

[Velox]

Well I like being a 'young un', but I'm really looking foward to having a mid-life crisis and buying a flash bike! Woohoo!!!

When I get to 70yrs I MAY think of a mid-life crisisi!!!! :confused2

[NC]

I have issues with getting older. I think I'll be one of those women that stay 30 till she gets to 50. :killingme

Patient?
Crazy? :Pokey:

[RiderInBlack]

41 and 3/4ers:finger: and still feel like I'm 31.
Mental age can go from 16 to 100+ in seconds e.g. F*ck let's see how fast this bike can go (age 16). Shit that's a bit fast for me and I don't think a could make the corner. Better start braking (starts braking miles back and have the feeling that my old bones might not heal very quickly). Gets past on the outside/inside (which ever took the bigger balls/tits at time by the passing rider), left with the feelings that I am a f*cken nana and that f*cken young wipper snappers think there so bullet proof (age 100+).

PS: just relised that the post no is the same as my age (freaky):whocares:

[Juan]

43...... never happier..... no crisis..... The best wife on the planet......more bikes than I can shake a stick at..... two MV's FFS, If I was young that just would not have happened..

And if all goes to plan a new life with you guys......(if you'll have us!!) :2thumbsup

[Joni]

I wish you guys all the best, I think you will do really well here.... I forget where you will be settling, but Im sure we'll see each other around. :)

Back to the subject at hand... Im 32, and I reckon Im a lot happier now than I was when I was in my early twenties... lots of lessons learned and a lot better of for them, got into waaaay to much shit as a young adult. However, dont get me wrong, Im still fully on the road of life lessons, when things get tough you tend to come face to face with yourself and realise the consequences of you the decisions you have made. :pinch: Seems Joni's feeling reflective today.... :lol: Dont worry, wont last long. ;)

[magnum]

im 35 but feel like 25 most days :beer:

[Hooks]

well my kids reckon the only thing older than me is dirt !! ... :sneaky2: And me ... well .... if I had known I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of my body .... :bash: But hey I'm 44 and 3/4's and am still the oldest teenager I know ....

[Ms Piggy]

Usually I say , "You're as old as the person you're feeling." but it don't quite work at the moment b/c my man is 40 and I'm 33. ;) No complaints here though.

[StoneChucker]

Yeah, I've heard that saying. Only one prob though. What happens if you aren't feeling anyone? I guess then you feel as old and tired as I do :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: <_<

[Joni]

Yeah, I've heard that saying. Only one prob though. What happens if you aren't feeling anyone? I guess then you feel as old and tired as I do :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: <_<

Better start feeling soon Dave!!!! :whistle:

[SPman]

How come the second 50 years your body doesn't match your mind? and the teenage girls look just as good? but so do the 35 years olds? 35 y.o's! Shit, some of the 50 yr olds look pretty good as well!

[NC]

Thats what they tell ya, but what they really mean is that by now you've got enough pay rises that you are able to afford the bike - never mind experience levels, 900s make more profit

[Slipstream]

I can remember my 21st,

[Kwaka-Kid]

Well, im 19 and a few months, and pretty much used to getting told i act like a 10yo!:spudwave:

I dont know if its because i have trouble counting passed 3 or because i still live in a fantasy world half the time:spudwhat: (damnit it cant be though i swear Hondas are good motorcycles!):wacko:



But i dont wanna grow up! ive heard too many stories and have already decided, if i had it my way id stay 16-18 forever, but unfortunatly im told it doesnt work like that.

[Waylander]

Just started wondering what the age range is of all the people on here.
Like wich age group makes up the majority and such. I did a search and didn't find anything so I don't think this has been done before.


So just select your age group and feel free to post what ever you choose to. For those that don't want thier age revealed this is not a public poll. (as in no one can see who selected wich one.)

[John]

I feel young an insignificant. Oh well, 19th this year how old am I feeling :lol:

[What?]

The perfect poll! I can't pick my age range coz it ain't there to be picked! :Punk:

[placidfemme]

Fully legal here at 21 My partner being 22 :)

[Magua]

Turned 18 in January. And now they might go ahead and raise the drinking age on me.

[James Deuce]

Interesting how people over 50 have been lumped into an age group with a potential 50 year span.

I'm picking Waylander is in his 20s and has therefore marginalised the largest percentage of NZ's population.

[Riff Raff]

None of your business.

[White trash]

I'm picking Waylander is in his 20s and has therefore marginalised the largest percentage of NZ's population.

I would'a put him at 18, 'bout the same age as Mikey.

[White trash]

And if you're gonna have a poll with set criteria, at least make sure all the options are correctly covered before you post it!

[Waylander]

Yea ok I screwed up on this one. What do you expect at 1:00 in the morning from someone with a cold.

I'm 21 BTW turning 22 in a few months.

[Indiana_Jones]

I'm pushing on 19
I've got a lust for life! :Punk: DADADADADA (Too much trainspotting for me)

-Indy

[bugjuice]

I'm at the end of one group, but the start of another.. You should have made the ages 19-25 / 26-30 / 31-35 etc etc...
in 18 days time, I'll be firmly in the next group tho.. so for now, I'll put the lower one..
25

[marty]

[Ixion]

Did he die? Damn, that's another thing I forgot. When did this happen ?

[crashe]

I see no one between 40-45 can vote as well.

[Ixion]

I see no one between 40-45 can vote as well.

jolly good thing too, considering who some of them are :devil2:
