Think you're special boss? Had my license when I was 16 and was on dirt bikes since 5 or so. Had my first Harley i bought at 18. Age is just a number.

I rode in the dirt since I was a kid, but didn't start on the street til I was in my 20's. Back in the 1970's a buddy of mine bought a POS sportster when he was 15, rebuilt it, and started riding a Harley on the street when he was 16. I bet lots of guys started like that, or even younger.

I got my first bike when I was 21. A '51 Panhead with a jockey shift, that I couldn't ride.

In Oklahoma, I got my motorcycle license at 14. But that was many moons ago.
