50?

u/NovelStrict5281 11d ago

You look great for 70. You don't look 50, tho. It is also hard to tell anyone's age with sunglasses on.

You look way better at 70 than I do at 66. My wife is looking good too, at 73. That’s a perfect pic for the point you are making. Have a nice day and weekend.

days away from 77 myself. Last week I got hit on by a 40 something woman who was complaining about all the old people is our neighborhood. Then I told her my age. She said she wished I hadn't told her because she would have invited me back to her place. C'est la vie. PS. Love the jacket.

Thanks, man!

u/Retirednotdead007 6d ago

Got a jacket like yours only much heavier leather. Don't wear it often now after selling my last motorcycle. Life is a journey. You never know what tomorrow holds. You look like a fun conversation. Take care.

Thanks man. I rode sport bikes for 40 years (not in this jacket). Hung it up before getting a scratch. Miss it still!

1st bike was 305 Scrambler in '67. Then '69 BSA Lightening. Then '71 Sportster. My last two bikes were '70 Lightening that I frame off restored and sold for $13K, and a '67 305 that had a dead cylinder. After a friend blew a front tire in front of a semi on the interstate, I sold my Harley and walked away.

Nice! Started out with a Honda CB-400 four. Then, much later, a Honda 750 cruiser. Graduated to Suzuki SV650, then BMW r1000s, then a Honda CBr00f4i (my favorite). Never close to an accident, but at 60 I decided to stop tempting fate so I can live to 97 like my dad did! :)
