    no male role models(for the most part)...stupid deadbeat fathers..lol

    I got my first bike a 72 CB350four with all $300 of my high school graduation money...lol used a borrowed helemt..

    The funny thing is that I saved up and bought a top of the line...at the time Shoei for just about the same price I paid for my bike...

    36 and riding, consistently, for the past 8 years. Prior to that my riding experience was limited to riding friends' street and dirt bikes, so I don't really count that as experience.

    Only until Randy Chimes in. I dont think anyone here could top his age/years riding, or mileage for that matter...

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?

    But when we ride very fast motorcycles, we ride with immaculate sanity. We might abuse a substance here and there, but only when it's right. The final measure of any rider's skill is the inverse ratio of his preferred Traveling Speed to the number of bad scars on his body. It is that simple: If you ride fast and crash, you are a bad rider. If you go slow and crash, you are a bad rider. And if you are a bad rider, you should not ride motorcycles.
