Haven't been on in a while so I thought I would jump back in and see what is new.
I'm 80 and still riding, love my F3S. Been riding since I was 18 but went to 3 wheels due to leg strength and balance issues a few years back. SoCal is my riding area, have done a few longer trips but mostly stick close to home, never get tired of riding the mountains. Too Much Fun

Definitely my kind of guy! Somebody needs to market a bracket for securing crutches to a spider. I met a fellow at a spyder rally years back who had a custom mount on his spyder that held his folding wheelchair.

Same reason I ride a Spyder, Agent Orange is effecting both of my feet. I will be 82 in June. Got the first 2018 RT in October 2020, it's gone now. I have two in the color I like now. One in Az and one in Wa. And mountains: Mount Rainier from Chinook Pass Washington.

Welcome from another octogenarian. Just got back into riding a few weeks ago. Love the power steering and automatic. I have a '22 F3S and I can throw a leg over it instead of climbing on. Feels great to be riding again.

Love that area, drove to the top of Mt. Rainier with a 44 passenger bus out of Fort Lewis in 1966

Maybe Paradise parking area 5400 foot! It is a long climb to the summit at 14,441 feet from there. You go up to Camp Muir 10800 foot the day before and leave the next morning at around 5PM for the summit.
