Hello Guys,

Can I claim the above title.

I am over 50 and still a biker at heart.

Current objective being to get my dream bike and get back to India and start to ride on a regular basis for what is left ahead.

Have been riding since 1971 (legally since 1977). Have riddent most of the Indian bikes from Enfield Crusader onwards.

Currently owns a Rajdoot RD 350 in India, which I bought brand new in March 1985. Have about 58,000 km on clock and absolutely in stock condition except the seat covers and the blinkers (paint and chrome has been done up couple of times in the past). In storage most of the year for last 15 years.

Have riddent extensively in South India until 1994. Couple of trips in the north and north east. Delhi Kulu-Manali and Calcutta-Darjeeling- Shillong being the most memmorable rides in India.

Dabbled bit in the Rally scen from late 70s to mid 80s when the scene was still largely ameture affairs, with mixed results. But had the pleasure of hob-nobing with the who is who of biking in those days, with particularly fond memories of Late Chandrashekar

Have been a careful rider but still had couple of nasty spills. Walked away and am writing this because of my HELMET.

Have owned a Honda CBR 600 in the past. Currently renting bikes, when I need the 'fix'.

I firmly believe that age is 'only a state of mind' and its up to you to live your life in whichever age you want.

Best Regards & Ride Safe

Ram
