    You know you're getting old when you spend more on bike accessories to make things more comfy than you spent buying your first bike.

    You Know you are getting old when: You go to a Vintage / Historic Bike show, & you see a bike entered in the show that was your first New bike Purchase.

    You know you're getting old when:

    the names you know in the obituary section are higher in numbers that those you know in the Graduation sections.

    You know you are getting older when............

    You pay $30 to go to the movies and fall asleep shortly after watching the upcoming previews.

    Hell, I know I'm old 'cuz I welcome the (rather frequent) pee breaks in order to stretch out the old bones. I used to be able to ride a sport bike between gas stops.

    The amount of miles ridden in one day exceeds the number of minutes napping.....




    OR, the idea of spending a couple of grand to get a bike comfortable doesnt bother you anymore.


    See, getting older and wiser and kicking the cubs to the curb DOES have its advantages!!!!!!!!

    You just had a proud moment yanking out a nose hair and gaze in wonder at how long that bastard is.

    Never push a fart past 30. You never know if you'll get a gift.

    You know you are getting old when...

    your car gets bigger, and you go slower.
    There is more hair in your ears than there is on your head.

    You know you are getting old when you look down and you see your blinkers have been on for the last 15 miles.

    Fortunately my truck has an alarm to let me know that is happening. It worked many times on this present trip.

    ...you go to the doctor's office and you're OLDER than the doctor! ...and the receptionist ...and the nurse ...and people start offering you their seat when you walk in.

    You know you are getting old when

    the hairdresser (not the barber anymore) asks if you want your eyebrows and ears trimmed
    ( or doesn't even ask! )
