Dunno about you fifty plussers , my racing days are over. The last time I got my knee down was at Bira in 2006 on my old GSXR1000 track bike. The very last time I managed to get my kneaded elbow and pretty much my whole body down was coming back from a local bar pissed on my little Neovo 135as I hit the wet clay road to my house a little bit fast. To me looking a bit dignified is better looking, although on a section of the 1269 a few weeks ago, I pinned it onnthe 135 and a 650 was having a hard time getting away from me. I guess it never leaves us entirely!:LOL
