Put your hands in the air, like you just don't care.

I have a group of old guys that come out to my track events. The eldest, Leroy, will be 85 in a week - and hauls ass out there.

Last year, Leroy flew through the air during a trackday. He ran wide, and the tire slid out. There he is, flying over his bike - bike spinning down the track - we're all thinking "BROKEN HIP!!!" He came in for an EMS check and simply needed a band-aide. His glove had worn through right on the edge of his hand. He then turned to me and said "You know what they say, 4 out of 5 people over the age of 70 will fall down this year... I'm just trying to stay within the statistic" He was so matter of fact about it... I love my old guys!

old guys don't have to go to work on Mon morning. it's almost like going back to being a teenager for some of them.

only difference is teens think they'll never die, old guys know death is coming, no sense waiting around for it.
