A few years back at a bike night, I met a 91 year old man on a 1947 Indian he bought new. He said he put an electric start on it 4 or 5 years before, as it was getting hard to kick start.
A friend of mine got his bike licence at 75 years of age, then made sure he had a group of us around when he brought his new bike home - I think for witnesses and protection. 10 years later he is still riding, even after Bambi ran into him and broke a couple of his ribs and bent his bike a bit.
I never could spell license either, to this day, thank God for spell check. I think the Brits spell it different, maybe, and I read a lot, so I blame them.
That don't help me none, I tend to spell it lisence first try. And you cain't go by the way the English spell it, they're furrinners, and in case you ain't noticed, them fellers talk real funny, sometimes I cain't make no sense a what they's sayin', I don't know why they cain't speek regular English like we does.
