    Senior FOG

    Who is the oldest Bull FOG on the board? When did you start riding and what was your first street bike?

    Me, riding since 1980, my first ride was a '69 Honda CB450...red with lots of chrome.

    You asking about the wheel chair because of who is oldest, or who manages to fuck themselves up the most?
    If it is the second option, I think I can play with the best of you (even if I am not all that old)

    I think he was asking about Bulls, not cows.

    Re: Senior FOG

    Whoa Jeff, you had flames coming off your bike in 74, and there's still flames coming off the bike in 06.


    I've been riding since the mid 60's. The first bike was a 305 Honda Super Hawk. That was a lot of bike for me at the time.

    Lee, you may have me edged for the oldest rider so far. Born in December.

    Re: Senior FOG

    age is found in the frame of the mind.... after many years of dirt-riding in the gravel pit, I started street riding in 71 when grandpa bought me a Kawasaki 350 (he rode it almost as much as I did..).

    I'm only 50 mark but I make the Seniors in the injury department!

    Yes, I recently had a head injury/etc but I've been cleared by the medical community

    Dalton is the oldest --- but he isn't on the net. His first bike was a Harley if I am not mistaken.

    Scruff Dog, rforsythe, anyone,

    Does anyone know who has the dubious distinction of being the senior member of the club?

    The oldest Bull?

    The oldest Cow?

    I'll be 58 on August 27th.

    Re: Senior FOG

    I believe the senior male would be Dalton. I have no idea who would be the senior-most female of the club. I would not probe very far on that one....

    Finally- a forum I can relate to. You guys may be old, but you sure haven't been riding very long. My first "street" bike was a 59 Ducati 200, got it for graduation in 65. Still riding Ducatis.

    I would have been riding a lot longer if it weren't for my parents. I had to leave home to get my first motorcycle.

    I remember in my mid-20's (owned a Honda CB750 by then) when my Dad dropped by my house one Saturday and asked me if I would mind if he purchased a life insurance policy on my life with him as the beneficiary; he thought I was a sure thing.
