I’m 60 and do regular track days on different bikes. Just finished one on my new V4 Speciale.

Not stopping any time soon

Cheers

Wow what date, I will be there 6/7 with Lets Ride? I am 56 (youngster) and do about 10 to 15 track days a year.

California Superbike School 6/25 - 27, Laguna Seca, 3-Day Camp, what a joy to do 10-15 track days, currently between grandchildren, work and MotoGP Austin, and World Superbike unable to get that many days. However next year my goal is to do 10-13. Thanks for asking.
 
Might have to change the forum name to baddest pensioners the way this thread is going lol
 
Come on, that's Prince Albert in drag. Mates really 35 years old. Just really tore up and beat down. But can ride like a champ!!
 
For all your older gentlemen doing trackdays at 60+ whats the secret to longevity at the track? Lots of yoga? :D
 
For me, being active ( walking, cycling, mountain bike, kayaking, surfing) lucky we have the climate for this year round.
Stretching, every day, and watching your weight (moderation is the key) eating healthy.
Generally just enjoying life and not worrying about age.
And, don’t worry about what could happen, I still do regular multi day adventure rides on my 1200 Enduro through the bush (best fun you will have but you will be sore for days).
I buy the best safety gear I can, I am always up to date with technology, and don’t carry on like some old guy living in the past.
Generally look after yourself, and love life

Spot on!
 
Well, it just hit me watching it that the V4 has such a wide powerband. I'm 63. It takes exercise (weights and walking) and a good diet. Be active and ride bikes - a lot!
