50+ with 2 knee surgeries and trying to keep up with Sam

I am definitely not maintaining standards. Only one knee surgery (another coming soon), watched Black Panther on Netflix last night, and the only time I see Sam (when I actually do ride) is in the parking lot.

I'm inclined to do the cove too. Maybe play around on the jeep stuff too.

I definitely don't feel like an old fart. I've been to a couple cardiologists over the past year and have seen some people there around my age who really do look and move like old farts. Those are some depressing waiting rooms... I'm not in the same ballpark as them for sure (although I do have some heart stuff getting checked out). Shoot, I've run almost 1700 miles so far this year.

That said, if being an old fart is not wanting to work on my bikes any more then I may be getting there. I've needed to do the valves and change the oil on my versys for like a year (it's been parked) and I need to change the oil on my wr250x and 690 enduro. The valves on the wr will be due soon (25k mile valve adjustment intervals :) ). I'm just completely unmotivated so I've been driving my truck to work lately, which I hate and which means I can't leave work to get something to eat (I always go out to eat when I'm at work).

Unless we determine old fartness based on a formula. Your age x your bike's age = your level of old fartness. I'm 495 by that formula.

Hmmm, by that formula, my oldest bike I'm 2806 and with my newest bike, I'm 1281. My combo might be over the hill ancient fartness. Maybe a different formula should be used. just sayin

this could be fun

65 x 8 = 520

Between trying to find out which ones balls are the oldest, can you tell me which date do you plan to ride?
I don't care if I'm too young for your standarts, I'll try to come and ride in a safe distance behind, just to feel like almost a part of the group!
If I'll be around and I'll try to be on that date which I need to know for that reason


EDIT: 27th is, probably, better.

Well, yes, looks like the 28th is not gonna work for me, so I'm riding on 27th even if no one else is
