I know im old now, cause when I go into a young womans dress shop instead of perving at the girls all I want them to do is turn the music down!

Went to the MX nats at Broadford today, haven't been to a modern MX in ages and so didn't know who was who.
So I wander around looking to buy a program and couldn't find one anywhere.
Turns out they don't print them anymore, you have to download a friggen app.
Stupid promoters think everyone wants to look through a phone for riding numbers.
MA doesn't even print the freakin' GCRs either. ::)

They do if you do a level four official's course, I've got a printed version.

KBW will be doing that because previously he would print a program at the start of the series and after a couple of rounds it would be useless.  I don't know what he would be doing for his sponsors though.  Previously the program was a big flashy thing full of adds.

You know you are getting old when you can't stand the modern music.  I was at the Troy Bayliss Expo last weekend.  There was this stand outside that was booming out what I would call absolute shit.  I thought how the hell can anyone listen to this !@#$%^.

Caught the train home after going to the football at Suncorp stadium (Lang park) a few weeks back.
Once aboard the packed train, a young fellow stood up and offered me his seat..................... :-[ :-[ :-[ :-\ :-\

Aah right, EA, my wife's  only a Level 3 Ref. and Stew., so that's why she didn't get a copy, despite protestations, Eh ? Our club ACTMCC had one printed for her. Me ? I'm only a lowly level 2.

I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

G,day viewers I recently joined a on line dating site.. split with the ex a while back. I thought it would be a laugh. Started looking at the woman my age and thought they looked old my son said there your age. It suddenly dawned on me  I,m not as young as I thought in my head I was. Sad but true I,m still a kid at heart. Jimson

Time to face up to it, if like me you were born in the first half of last century then you are old.

You know you're old when you can't remember why it's so hard to get up in the morning without causing some type of soreness  ::)

Until 3 days later when you remember landing on the ground from that 40 foot jump.... Or flipping the bike while in 5th gear..... Or having a head on with some tree you didn't know.... Or that time the footpeg snapped off landing from a jump...... Or that time a roo jumped out on you while pinned in 5th gear..... Or that time........

Apparently "shrinkage" for the older man is another issue to be confronted. J

You're as old as the woman you feel.  :P
The last one I felt was older than me, that was over 5 years ago so I guess Im old.
