the Oldest Biker?

#1 Unread post by mogster »

According to an insurance company Britain's oldest biker is Reg Scott, 94yrs young!

His first bike in 1937 was a Norton 16H 490cc, :uk: which cost him£73!

He currently rides a :motorcycle: a Honda CBR250R, bought from his winnings of a TV show, (he donated most of his winnings to charity).

After 73yrs of riding Reg says "Riding gives me a sense of freedom, allowing me to get around more easily & enjoying the open road. Age has nothing to do with it. I'll be on my bike for as long as I can". :rockon: :D

Anyone heard of an older biker?

One of my favorites, I like that new CBR250R. Went back to sit on it again a half dozen times at the big bike show last Jan. Something about that bike that appeals to the elderly I think. LOL

A 97 year old gent showed up for one of last years toy runs. Finally went to a sidecar rig because he was having troubles keeping his big Harley standing at the stop signs...
