I loved this thread from the other board, and I like creating polls.
So... lets get it started again!

Hmm...
Apparently there is a poll options limit.
I tried 8, works with 6.

This could be interesting. I wonder if the "sample" of us who met at Watoga State Park, WV last October will look like the poll results. Out of 7 of us at Watoga, at 53, I was the fourth oldest.

HOW OLD ?

Post by dereifelfahrer »

I have been riding and have continuosly owned at least one BMW since 18 years of age. From my R67/3 to present (R100cs, R1150R and Liebshen my "S") it's been and continues to be a great ride. I am one of the two admitting to be over 65. Prosit!
