You got it man, you got it.

I think your thought of opening a thread "Show your self together with your Tbird" is an excellent idea.
Why don't you just do it, and start out with your self.
I will then follow, and so will others.

Thanks Lee.
Being normal at age 65, is a difficult thing to define, but being a bit overweight, dragging one leg, half blind, and reduced hearing, I consider normal, at least in my case 
@ Ray, I found a photo of you with a large fish, in one of your local newspapers, and I can reveal that I was as surprised, about your looks, as you where about mine. 
I can reveal though that I consider me being the pretty one, of the two of us.

Haha. I'm the same age, have two of those three ailments plus a few more, but I'm still going, still riding and camping.

I bought one of these 8 years back, pretty happy thus far.
About 200,000k's up between the 3 bikes since then. ( and one spill )
But she's been known to be a wee bit cooler down here.

| | Posted : 05 Dec 2020 - 15:31 Post title : Re: leather jackets (Re: aussietbird) | | | That's a handsome jacket, good for colder weather. Never saw a belt closure for the neck. I have Triumph jackets, not as long but I use heated gear. I have heard of waxed cotton/ canvas but never leather, interesting.

That photo above of me shows my waxed cotton jacket which is very similar to the one Mick linked too.
