Don't know who's the youngest but there's a few OAP in class B :D
I would imagine the min age is as per the ACU rules for racing that size of bike, and the max dependant on if you could still hold an ACU licence (not something I would know though!).
I would imagine the youngest is a 20-something, and the oldest a 50-something...

I think you need to extend those decades in each direction Ron......Lol....poor old Ghosty has a bus pass I'm sure, and Charlie, who's joining the melee this year, has a decade on us demi centenarians at least !

I think Kye was 18 when he raced in 2006, Couldnt possibly comment on the oldest tho.
Excellent....didn't realise that
I have 4 decades so there is still time....
& that means I have at least a decade to learn to ride my bike faster...:-)

Hmmm....that sounds like fighting talk! Is he still in China, and is that why you think you can get away with this, David? :)

Oh no Steve, Phil is well and truly back and the age related insults twixt we two continue unabated !

Why wait? One of the reasons I am racing is to learn how to ride faster anyway. There is nothing better than following someone faster than you, and no safer/cheaper way to do it.
Agree - would be good fun and a great way to learn
Question of time really - maybe when the kids are older....
Got any jobs going in the Maldives...............................you can keep Northampton!.....:-D

And here was me thinking I would be the wrinkliest bod on the grid. Seems not since I'm still a couple of years shy of the big half-C. :o)
