having looked through the site during today, it looks as though a large proportion of the member are of the, lets say , more mature rider group.
Does this effect the way you ride, either by yourself or when in a group.
do you ride more sensibly , or take more risk because you have more experiance on a bike, in more varied conditions.
It's probably safe to say that ducati's have a good safety background, but do you exploit this.
I have some friend who love all bikes, but are total looney's on two wheels.
does age make you a better biker or a bigger risk taker.
interested to hear your views.

I dont want to get hurt
I try to ride accordingly
every time I think "failed again"
but I think i'm starting to get a bit slower
every time the red mist descends i think of the kids and back off a bit
mile up the road i do summit silly

as for age, every one knows your immortal when your young

[webbyc]

Depends whether we are going to or from a meet - sedate there, sedater back!!!

[bradders]

usually just behind skids...so I'll take the '6th' !!
