How old is too old?!?

Hi all, happy new year. I was just wondering how old is to old to stunt?

I have been playing in the lots now for a few months. It seems like everytime I come back something hurts. I spent 3 weeks limping around after killing my right ankle then another week on my left ankle. RSI in my hand from clutching it up all the time. Now my legs are hurting after 30 mins practicing staggered pow wows. My Dad reckons I am too old for this **** at 37, but god loves a tryer.

Come over to the UK section dude.

'regional rider meetup' 'international riders' 'united kingdom'.

oh and the exact age that is too old is when OMR decides to give up. Probably around 87.

Re: How old is too old?!?

I dont think its really an age, more like how many injuries youve suffered.

Re: How old is too old?!?

36 in a few days... watched AC nearly win the Euro champs (he came second) at 43 years.... kinda made me think that age means fuckall - Troy Bayliss winning WSB at 38 etc...

I guess there comes a time when you have to work harder for the same benifit as a younger man but if you are focused and determined i mean what does it matter, when your helmet is on we are all 22years old!!!!!???!!!

I feel old when im inbetween rides but when im stuntin the bike takes me away from all that ****... i really just love to ride.

When my bike works that is!
