• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Define "Old"

The secret to longevity and good health; "I don't let the old man out"

Clint Eastwood
Are you certain? He said, "Don't let the old man in." It became part of the lyrics Toby Kieth wrote in a song after talking with Eastwood. The song was featured in Eastwood's 2018 movie The Mule.
 
Adulting is putting back a pack of chicken for $11.58 because you see one for $11.17

Adults seemed way adultier when I was little.

Reached the age where I can't tell if I sustained an injury or that's just how
I am now.

The older you get, the uglier you're willing to go out in public.

Hang in in Paul, as I age (92), I seem to spend more time in Dr's office and less time on the RTL, maybe that's the way it's supposed to work, I dunno! I walk by that fine machine, just sitting in the garage, seems I hear a faint voice, "ride me more". If no rain Sunday, maybe I'll load up the Mrs and ride it 40 miles to church!
You are my Hero Bill. Every time I think about slowing down I think of you.
 
As my Pop used to say, “How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?”

He died at 87 and never acted a day over 50.
 
Old is when you become the oldest living relative in your local family. One aunt & two more cousins, I'm there.

The 40 year old waitresses at the town Bar-B-Que place call you Mr. GW, but you don't go out with any of them because it would almost seem like that would make you a pedophile. You went to school with their grandparents, who are all gone to the happy hunting ground.
 
I think "old" is a state of mind. I understand physical limitations, but those can happen at any age. Hubby is going in for a hip replacement this month, and he's not 60 yet. Dad (FIL, but he's been "Dad" for almost 30 years and I'm not changing now!) will be 80 in October; we put him on 3 wheels back in 2012, on a Springer that hubby put a Frankenstein trike kit on (side note. don't do it!) He's put maybe 500 miles on the trike since then. This April, we put him on a 2024 RTL. He's got almost 1500 miles on it already. He says he felt old on the trike, but is enjoying feeling young again on the tricycle. He walks down here daily, weather permitting, and puts in some miles on the treadmill when weather doesn't permit. My Mom, on the other hand, is physically okay but losing her mental faculties. She's old at 77 and has been for a few years now. My Dad passed at 90, went to work every day up until his last hospital stay. Stayed active, still drove, planned trips, would debate you on any subject just for fun. MIL passed this March, having been old for 10 or more years, physically, but mentally still sharp. Some days, I'm old. Really old. Some days, I'm not sure that the birthdate on my drivers license is correct... no way I'm that old!

I don't think there's any official age that says "you're old now". We all have to age, but we don't have to grow up!

Define 'Old'.
Well, just another stage of life that everyone will have to deal with someday.
Some people do okay in this stage but most are never ready for it.
Unfortunately, Health is Big Issue. I definitely was not thinking about 'Old'.
My Tip - just enjoy all of God's Blessings.
It seems to work for me.

Have yourself a Blessed Day my friend. (y)
