    Wonderfully hot day today in Newcastle , went out for a ride around tyne
    valley, and got caught in the thunderstorm to end all thunderstorms. No
    waterproofs, so I am suitably drenched. But hey what great fun, Even got
    splattered by hail at one point. Never realised getting soaked was so
    much fun.

    Why did i wait till I was 37 to get a bike??

    Because your mid-life crisis/divorce/depression* hadn't kicked in yet.

    "Mid life", Ivan. If you dropped dead now that would make it a minimum age
    of about 90.

    I got my first bike at 16, not exactly mid life but it made it far
    more interesting.

    I didn't actually get my first bike until I was 21/2. Does a mobilette
    moped 6 years before count? For obvious reasons I won't mention the
    LD125 which, along with and Issetta bubble car an Austin Cambridge
    Estate a rather green MG midget and a Hillman Super Minx, filled the
    gap.
