hows that Washington area?
my cousin lives in Bellingham, is that the city at the very north of Washington?
My brother and I went up there a few months ago and climbed Mt. Baker. Spent a couple nights on the top of that glacier. I would give just about anything to live there.

I was about to think I was the old fart @ 58 but you have me beat.....I have a goal of inviting friends to the local drag strip in town on "run what you brung" night in Greer, SC and video it...nitrous on....wheel stands in all 4 gears.....not so much top speed ...just lots of noise and air...and hope to hang on to get a timing slip to frame with the best pic....then sell it to someone with more money than brains.....before it lands me in a hospital.....

Keep telling the wife its only a hobby. Getting to the age to get serious about starting your final toy collection. Maybe I will win.........Merry Christmas!!!

I'm 41. I have a 17 year old daughter and a one year old daughter. Lots of women trying to keep control of me. Tinkering in the garage is all that keeps my sanity level where I want it to be. I love the looks and questions that come with my bsr. I am working on a mini chopper now, and have a motorized pedal car I am trying to design in my head. I have 2 barstools. I needed one for the wife, because 2 is always better than 1. I thought if she had her own, it would give me an excuse to build more. Just found this site yesterday and I love it.

I'm 58, glad the question was asked, WOW, I thought most guys were 20-35ish, instead I see MANY 50 yr. olds. I think we are trying to makeup for our childhoods (mine was lacking, didn't have all the toys kids these days have,, all I had was a stripped down 26" Columbia bicycle and a wooden coaster wagon that I used to collect used newspaper for money from the recycler, YEH, we recycled back then !!) as there were NO such things (or computers) back then, we're now also at that point in time where the kids are moved out and ya have a little more pocket change to play with, I didn't have ANY kids (that I know of, lol) so have more money to start with. HA !!

I guess I'm in the "upper age level" I'm 47.
But you know what is cool about that? I finaly have the money to do all this crazy stuff. I don't have to wait to dig up the extra cash.
Last year I built a Tear Drop Camper, (spent about $3500. on that)
This year a BSR. (about $1100. into this little gem)
Bought a welder, bought all my parts before I even started building my frame.
I ride a 1999 Road Star Silverado, and have another 25 foot travel trailer.
I plan on taking the BSR with us when we go camping...you never know when you have to run down to the campstore for more ice.
I am a big kid at heart, and now I finaly have money in the bank to back up all my crazy projects, (plus a very understanding wife of 22 years). she just shakes her head everytime I come up with these wacky ideas.

Well guys, or gals, age is all in you mind. I will be 35 in Feb. and still build all sorts of crazy stuff, play hot wheels with my two sons, ages 1 and 2, and race and maintain two performance cars. So I think that age is all in your mind. If you let your self think you are old, you get old. However, as I was getting out of the car this morning to drop my boys off at daycare, I slipped on the ice and bit it so hard, I think my teeth hurt...... So lets go with young at heart, because my A@$ still hurts.......
Stay young

It's hard to get stuff here and the costs for shipping is high. Maybe someone can use their talent and build a racer to go on water so I can get what I need. In the meantime , I just go to work, play with my grandkids and go to the beaches and checkout the wahines (babes).:cool_dude: I have seen some beautiful rides that u guys have built and would like to do the same and have a thong wearing butt babe rub her oiled up skin all over the stool..........she will feel the vibrations rush through her loins as she cruizes down Waikiki.:thumb: She u on the beach.
