I was 65 at the time (hence the number), and after the initial nervousness was past, I felt right at home. Not very fast maybe but I still had fun and learned a lot. I also learned that the only safe place to ride fast is the track.

My grandpa hasn't ridden since 1982 until I bought a bike a few years ago. He one ups me and goes out to buy a new 2009 R1200RT. With that kind of money I would have an s1000rr and still have my 11S.
