OP said seat time. Dirt bikes count!. In the summer as a kid I'm pretty sure I managed 8 hours a day 7 days a week on dirt bikes. I imagine the most consistent riding I ever did was on dirt bikes. At 16 I got street bike but I also got a job. No more summers of non stop riding. Maybe if I ever retire I'll change that.

 

 

90cc scooter in the summer of '64.

Me in the front, my younger brother on the back. (RIP, Les.)

 

 

Street bikes since 1970, well over a 1/2 million miles on 2 wheels.

 

17 months!

17 thousand miles.

Hoping for 1,000,000 in my lifetime.

 

 

That's a beauty! Was looking at a 72 Triumph Triple for 8 grand over the weekend. I need another bike like a whole in the head. I passed.

 

Turn 59 tomorrow and dad got me a Briggs and Stratton mini bike when I was 7 years old.

52 years in the saddle...damn, I am old.

 

If we don't hit the forums tomorrow... Happy birthday old man!
