• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

BRP a front for AARP?

I have seen quite a few retirement homes billboards with a old guy on a Spyder RT but who cares. I like the Spyder, although it’s just RS I like, that’s all that matters. I have more fun on Spyder than anything I had before.
 
We must have aged a lot since the thread started. The first page had all 50's and 60's. No 70's. :bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:

I did not take time to read all the other entries. Out of sight, out of mind. :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:
 
150

Since my wife an I ryde together most times, perhaps we should answer according to our combined ages = 150 (as of June 2018). That will push the average higher, but perhaps is justified because of her tendency to dictate just how, when, where I should drive the Spyder. Any resulting performance is jointly produced!!!

Well I am fast approaching the age of dirt at 79

:doorag:
Hell, I thought that I was older than dirt and have been saying it for a couple of years now, and your telling me that I’m wrong? I’m 75 and still doing 300 mile (not km’s) day rides in 95* F temps, which I liken to blast furnace temps. and yes everyone, keep hydrated while out riding (or while sitting at home) in these temps.
 
I got my Medicare card in mail a couple weeks ago and in about 12 more days I can start using it. Be 65 next month an my other half well I wont say how old she turns next month. She rides behind me but I'm going let her start driving the Spyder too.
 
I'll be 68 this year I didn't start riding again until I was 62, on 2 wheels then. I can attest after attending KC Spyder Riders meetings that many are older than me and only a few are younger.
 
What the....

This thread is so old it's back from the dead!

Still in my late 50's, kicking and screaming about being dragged into the next decade. But I've embraced AARP on account of the senior discounts that members get.

This thread died in 2010 but came back to life this month. Scanning through the old posts was fun. Most posts were from people who were unfamiliar. And, I agree with akspyderman. The age of us spyder owners seems to have "matured". At 71, I don't help to lower the average.....

Well I won't be helping at 77 to lower it but if a bunch of 20 year olds join that will help. Stay young ride like the wind.:ohyea::yes::yes::yes::yes:
 
63 and there is only one race, the human race.
Huh? There is only one species, the human species. "Race" is subordinate to, and within, species. Per Merriam-Webster: (emphasis added)

RACE noun.

a : an actually or potentially interbreeding group within a species; also : a taxonomic category (such as a subspecies) representing such a group
b : breed
c : a category of humankind that shares certain distinctive physical traits

If your statement were true, then it logically follows that there is only one breed of dogs, the dog breed. Right? :dontknow:
