Well, I'm fifty so I guess that qualifies me as a older rider. Rode for about 50 miles saturday before christmas. It was about 48 degrees. Haven't rode since, I was feling under the weather new years weekend. had my first ride in the 60's, it was a mini bike when I was 10 years old. Man I thought that was a awesome ride.. My 10 year old grandson doesn't know what a mini bike is, boy have times changed.
