I appreciate the welcome!

Old fart is more of a modest inference of wisdom. The equation is, path and miles traveled VS the condition of the carcass determines its worth.
IMO

Cruising smooth highways provides a narrow view of the trips experiences.
Surviving the potholes of roads less traveled and finding yourself in the ditch a time or two, getting off road and being stuck occasionally or just flat being broke down from the abuse of the trail sure gives one a different perspective.

Arriving at your destination clean and all shiny sure looks good. Those getting there bruised dented and cut covered in dust mud and blood think it is the wisdom gained from the trips path that earns you the title of "old fart".. :1moon:

Sound like you've been through Moab or Green River a few times. That sounds like exactly how I wound up after 8 hours of abuse riding 10 Mile Wash and Dead Cow Wash on my dirtbike.

Again, glad to have you with us!
