Default Shady has a foot in the grave

Turned 43 today. I used to think that was pretty old when my dad was 43 and I was 16. Still can't wait to get to the dunes and rip it up though, and I still have a little hair left on my head but most of it's on my back and my ears.

Working on a new product, handlebars that disconnect and attach to an aluminum walker for getting around camp.

Couple of oatmeal stouts (named Big Bullet Theory) on order from the Shady Brewery for tonight.

We're only as old as we think.........

Dont feel too bad guys. My father is 50 and he still goes riding with me and my friends and family all the time. He even has plans to get back into ice racing if they bring back the "veteran" class for 40 or 50+ year old riders.

lol When I get someone who says there only 14 I tell them I'm wearing underwear that old. Don't hit 43 for another 4 months. Can't wait for the flamewars over who has the fastest walker. Since you'll be hitting the bar, here is an interesting item I heard on the radio yesterday. Having 5 drinks (beer) a day doesn't make you an alcoholic. Figure in the days I didn't drink and carry those drinks over, I should start dinking right now!
