What is the average age of this group ?

[hamamatsu]

I'm just curious as to the average age of this group and how long the members have been riding.

I'm 67 years old and have been actively riding for 54 years. I still ride nearly every day during the summer months. I hope to ride until 3 days after I'm dead.

58. Bought my first bike in 1974, a BMW R90S. Rode friends bikes before that from time to time. Took my riding test on a buddy's Trident. Wish I had the BMW back.

44. Been riding since I was 14. First street bike when I was 16. 1980 GS450S. I used to ride it to driving school. (mandated by the state to drive cars, but not bikes) That earned some funny looks. I have another GS450 now I'm restoring.

I'm 35. Been riding since I was about 5 (Z50). Mostly rode dirt bikes/quads. I rode friends street bikes all the time. Most of them had more than 1 bike and it only cost me gas. Got my first street bike, my XS, several months ago and can't get off of it.

54, been riding only since 2008 inspired by gas crisis. Always worked on my cars, so preferred a bike I could work on, and it had to be cheap, since the whole thing was about economy. Have about 20,000 miles now on learner's permit. lol. Passed msf course. Only other time on bike was as a passenger, around 1980; college roommate had a Yamaha 750.
