I started road riding when I was about 14. Used to ride my 68 Trophy to school, no rego, no license. I was a big boy and didn't attract attention from the boys in blue. Didn't get my first car until my mid twenties when I meet a new girl friend ( my wife ). When I discovered that she could balance a bag of groceries on each knee I knew she was a keeper. Only bought the car to keep dry when shopping.
Most of my early bikes were British, 500 Triumph Scrambler, 650 Triumph Trophy, 650 Norton, BSA. Later it was Harleys, WLA, lowrider, Ultra-glide. Then Japanese, road rockets & tourers ... MK3 500 Kawasaki, 750 Suzuki Waterbottle, 500-4 Honda, 750-4 Honda, Z1B Kawasaki, 1500 Honda Goldwing, 1500 Honda Valkyrie.
I once thought that I'd never stop riding, but as time went by I discovered that I'd lost my "edge". You guys that have ridden for a long time will know what I mean. I'm 62 now and I still love bikes, and it is a life style that I dearly miss.
