Sorry jiggles; you're going to have to get passed at least 209MPH to have the worlds fastest ninjette.

Thanks for your encourage, guys; however, my problem is not age related.

Follow the link (special for @akima):

I have had a neurological problem that deteriorates my hearing and balance senses, slowly but surely.

I know that in some time from now, I will not be able to properly keep the balance on any bike.

Riding something like a trike doesn't appeal to me: if I cannot lean a bike......

I have been doing mechanic work and riding many types of motorcycles, including sidecars, since I was 12.

It has been half a century of pure joy; that is what I would like to motivate many young people to live.

Again, thank you all.
I heard about that guy a while ago. Impressive stuff.

So sorry to hear that you may be unable to ride in the coming years. I hope you make the most of your current riding time.

Congrats on getting member of the month! You earned it. I love having you around here.
