Members Ages?

Irish · 11-16-2015, 01:00 PM

I think that it would be an interesting idea to compile a list of the members ages. I have an idea that a lot of members are older than thought (example---I'm 71)

I guess no one wants to admit that they are getting older!

They used to say "you're not getting older...you're getting better"......don't know if I totally agree with that, as I will be 68 in another week.

I guess RKS & I are the only ones that aren't afraid to admit our ages. Maybe no one is interested. That's another possibility!

Per the calendar, I am 65+. But my physical and mental capabilities are that of someone far younger than that.

Recently I was exposed to a situation where I was around a group where people in their early 40s were exhibiting symptoms of extreme old age. Meaning they had a hard time getting up, and moving and had difficulty thinking clearly.

Some of the younger ones, 20 - 30 YOs, thought I was in my 40s. It might have been because of my "Grass Drill" exercising and how I think, move and speak.

There were two particular men in the group that flanked my calendar age, and both IMO had seen their best years already pass them by. So I guess what I am saying is that calendar age means nothing to me.

I will be 24, next week.

I 'spose I may as well throw down for my age group.

Twenty for a few more weeks. Twenty-one on the 30th, although. Nothing exciting planned, but on a personal achievement note, I'll be completely personal debt free after a nasty brush with a laundry list of un-fun medical issues and using up all that sweet credit card availability. Pro-tip, avoid almost dying...it's quite expensive.

Just in time to quit my full-time job and go back to school full-time!

When I was 20 , I was in my 3rd yr of enlistment! I graduated High School at 17 & enlisted a few mo. later. VN was just getting started & I thought that it would be cool to enlist. Stupid Kids!

61, just got into scooters because I had to give up motorbikes. Arthritis in my knees and hips makes it too painful to throw my leg over a motorbike and sit there- a legacy of 15 years as a coal miner. I'm just happy to still be up on 2 wheels!

Just starting to ride, turned 80 last fall. From one Scotsman (family 300 years removed) to another..I hear you with the arthritic leg..that's why I started with a scooter..
