What do you see yourself riding at age 60..?

**Blackbird** · 15th June 2006, 19:47

Ummmm... I've only got 18 months to go

Maybe I should sell the Blackbird and get a scooter.

Actually, thinking of doing another 1000 miles in 24 hous ride to celebrate - grow old disgracefully

14 years away .... Mrs Oakie and any motorbike I can still throw my leg over.

Making it to 60 is my first priority, but i can see myself still out there doing it on what ever i will own at that time, one thing for certain is, i will no longer be working at that age and will not have been working for about 5 yrs before. Plan A is to stop that nonsense mid 50's and get out there and enjoy enjoy enjoy.............

I'm only 12 months away and I'm not getting swapping the Multistrada for way longer than that.

If we're (ok I'm) to be honest, when we're 60, we'll be looking 'round for some rich available 75 year old that wants a 'Toy Boy' and is willing to buy him a new toy to keep him happy and hard.

60 is a state of mind and Mrs B says I haven't got past 5. I'm stopping work full timeat 60 to do the things I really want to do whilst the body is in good nick.

Fortunately, I have no arthritic tendency. The Daytona 675 does look very juicy.

Don't think I'll last that long, already used up about a 1000 lives

**oldguy** · 15th June 2006, 20:36

Hopefully I,m still riding the VTR1000 in another 10years, should be a classic we,ll both be old relic,s

There is a snippet is Triumphs Torque magazine about a 80 year old who just bought a new Bonneville, his 40th bike. Good example that bloke, in more ways than one.

yeh....thats the option ida ticked if it was there....sorry guys, but 60 just seems too old to me....i dont plan to get older than 30 if i can avoid it. unless some gorgeous guy or bike comes along to change my mind. i plan to die on whatever ride ive got at the time. hopefully something big and cruiserish.
