Not to beat a dead horse but riding the loop is better than taking your neighbors out in your Bronco collection to run epic Colorado washes! Yes, those are young children driving. Front to back, 1974 Sheriff Bronco all original, 1971 Bill Stroppe, 1971 60k original mile (broke down during the ride) and the 1974 Rancho appointed brother of big foot.

I plan (as in building my stuff right now) on building a shit load of kick ass Drifters and giving people a tour of the most incredible ride perhaps in the world up here in Colorado. Alamosa to Pagosa to Chama back to Alamosa. Fly in, ride and fly out. I have lived a full life and my Drifter on that loop beats everything else. For instance a trip to Moab with a historical Bronco running 40s is a joke.

  how about a job at Canada's Wonderland and then you could be a barker or ride coordinator.

If anything, When I retire I want to become a car salesman or a real estate agent. Those two professions seem like a lot of fun if I don't have to worry about making a lot of money. Also, I'll have a lot of connections by then and hopefully be able to connect it up.

I just hope with the current economic situation, and our government screwing us over, that I'll be able to retire ever.

If so, I have enough hobbies to keep me busy - hobbies I seldom have any time for now - woodworking, metal working, hunting, leather working, the list goes on.  I'd also like to have time (and good health) to re-do some bikes and cars.

Between the household jobs and repairs and the time I spend doing something to one of my bikes, or another, The shopping, cleaning, cooking and washing, the rides, keeping up with the paperwork and paying the bills on time..retirement seems to take a lot more of my time than working ever did.

Troll at least unlike DC you were not using cubits when you built your last boat....

That was not a good measuring system.  The boat ended up being too small and I couldn't fit any dinosaurs, and we know what happened to them.  I did manage to get enough wives on board though.  Boy, did I ever regret that!

An engineer I worked with told me the hardest part about becoming an engineer was when they drilled the hole in the base of his skull and drained out all the common sense. Up to that point, I wasn't aware that he had any...... ;)

Eh, I'm an Aerospace Engineer. We have holes drilled in the top and get any leftover common sense to make us that much better than other engineers. That's why I'm into working on cars and also Drifters.

That being said, I can't talk too loud, being a welder. :D

Impressionable? I'm not so sure engineer and impressionable go together. Something about engineers being stubborn, and not good listeners... I don't know, I didn't pay attention to that part, didn't think I'd ever need it.

We're always trying to get younger people interested in motorcycles, and here we have a prime example of a young, impressionable enthusiast, and what do they do...give 'em crap...I wish I still had 41 years to retirement...If I'd known I was going to live this long, I might have taken better care of myself...or not!

let me see if I have this right, retierment age is 41 years away, and you will retire at 65 so that makes you like the baby on the forum, wow Troll has socks older then you......DC has wood left from his ark trip older then you...lol...

I'm sure there is someone younger than me.
