I think we are gonna call this trip to Mt. Mitchell and the Diamondback "The Walking Wounded Tour" in honor of our creaky old flesh.

Being a NewBie, I don't feel qualified to give advice, but.............my approach would be when it is no longer fun or you don't feel comfortable/safe, make some changes.  You can still ride to the Post Office, Bank, Grocery, etc............Don't give up till they throw dirt in your face!  Smiley

I hope you don't give up the Savage Oldfeller because I enjoy reading your posts.  I have learned a lot from them.

I got a new indicator -- when all your riding buddies get too old to ride and no-one shows up at the meeting point.

I agree with engineer.  Oldfeller's posts are always a good read!
It sounds to me like OF might want to slow down, but doesn't know how???

As long as I can see, I plan to be riding..
I can't even begin to think of having to
hang up my helmet and gear for good.
I refuse to think I will ever turn over
my keys to someone else..Smiley kim
