Ok, I'll bite, besides, it's raining here.

Minus the 140+ years since the Civil war, and a couple other posts that I couldn't do the math:

1898 years

Iv'e been on two wheels since 1968. Started on a Golden Pinto mini-bike back in 6th grade. Used to ride that sucker on the snowmobile trails up north. Bought my first street bike, a Honda 350, when I turned 16. Went through several Jap bikes until I could afford my dream bike in 1988. It's been all H-D from then on. I've owned and have been riding some type of street bike continuously for 35 years and counting. Good times!
