I ride a Kawasaki Concours ZG-1000 and I have two hang gliders that I still fly. What do you expect to be doing when you hit 60?

    I'm just hoping to age gracefully - whatever that means for me. Keeping active, but not doing what's unrealistic stuff for me at that time.

    I want to be like these 2... But I don't think I started early enough. :disappointed:
    Of course, if I hit the lottery & have nothing better to do than travel, I'll do my darndest to catch up.

    WOW! I'm impressed! thanks for sharing the pics. They beat me hands down. I'll be happy if I get in another 100,000 miles.
