Default How old are you?

Anecdotal evidence I've gleaned from this forum suggests that the average age here is higher than I would have expected of any internet forum, and it's gotten the sociologist in my curious.

What is the average age of an internet savvy sportster rider?

Been done before, but the forum demographics have changed. I'm 5-6 years older than when I joined....

I don't think 55+ is the end of life, btw, but when I created the poll I selected "5 options," and after I got creating them I didn't feel like editing it and adding more choices for "55-65" and "65-75".

According to my significant other... I'm either 2 1/2 or 70, depending on the day and various other factors...
