Ok I am 52 on my 2nd GasGas been rideing for over 40 years and have tried a lot of different bikes but like the GasGas best. The one bike I still love though was my 1974 Husky WR250 Man did I have fun on that bike when I was wild and 18.

54 here, started at 13 on a street bike delivering papers, can you say seat time? I didn't discover dirt until about 17. Rum for me please

According to my paperwork I'm 42,, tho I usually claim 30 still so should I vote twice? I go by the motto,, "if you never grow up you'll never grow old".. and so far so good.. sorta.. I'm a beer drinker,, and hit the hard stuff on occasion.. no smoking tho.. not in 22 years at least.. been riding since I was like 9 or 10,, had a 72 honda ct70 as my first "real" bike.. then a xr100,, 83KDX200/240kitted, various bikes since.. too many to list.

53 here and riding on/off since teen years. Don't ride enough (3 times last year including getting the shit kicked out of me at the Maine National enduro) and spend more time on the mtn. bike. Maybe this year more dirtbike riding;) 165 lbs, body and plumbing work great (read no Viagra needed here:D) but like many others the close up vision needs cheater glasses. I'll take it considering what some otheres my age already deal with.

I'm 52. Got my first bike when I was 14 (Honda SL125) and haven't been without a bike of some sort ever since, usually several. I'm enjoying riding now maybe more than I ever did - over the last 5 years or so there has been a huge increase in organised fund raiser trails rides. These are often on private land and have provided sooo many more riding opportunities.

Good post!

Well the age meter is about to roll over to 42.
But your only old as you think you are. I keep trying to think I'm 25. It's not working! :(

Started riding on my 10th birthday got a Yamaha TY80 trials bike to learn on then came the mx minis. Raced motocross and trail rode up until I was about 17 and then girls, party's and getting out on my own got in the way of dirt bikes.

I got back into dirt bikes when I was 31 and have rode mostly offroad since. Not much mx, just what are added to the Hare scrambles courses and a MX practice day here and there.
