You don’t get too old to ride, not riding is what makes you old.

meh, the calendar is what makes you old. I guess with age comes the risk/reward scale tipping more towards the what if instead of the it’s fun! Risk involved with everything in life but as I get older, for me anyway, that risk isn’t worth the reward anymore.

seriously though, I don’t see or react the same way I used to, just have to realize it.

My dad was riding his 1998 ZX-11D until he was 60. He sold it cause where he moved to was too dangerous for him to ride. All blind corners, people crossing centerline, might be a cow standing in the middle of the road, etc.

I can respect that. I almost lost a good friend a couple weeks ago when he crashed while riding with us. The day before he was telling us that thos may be hos last year riding as he knows his reflexes and attention span are diminishing. The next day he crashed in a easy sweeping curve. He's 71. Nobody knows you better than you. If you don't feel safe on a bike, that's a rational decision to hang it up.
