I got old yesterday....

Yep it's official.

I sold the Kawasaki Ninja and bought a new Toyota Camry Hybrid.

Extremely sensible thing to do - but part of me has died. :cry_smile::cry_smile::cry_smile::cry_smile:

Do not fret my dear... Listen to GrannyGruffalo... Men are allowed a second youth... Once the family responsibilities are done... Well, mostly sorted.... It is quite usual for them to regress and buy sooped up speedy power road bikes ... On which they promptly stick to the limit...

You have many years of happy riding to look forward to

Hold that thought

For 20 years:D

Rather older than middle-aged judging by the ones that ride up and down this mountain every weekend.
