Who has been riding for longer now than they did BITD

[jimwise68]

After replying to another thread I have just realised I will probably be riding a BMX for longer this time round than I did BITD.

I rode from 82 to 84 BITD and this time round from Autumn 2005 onwards.

Just hope I don't rediscover women (my missus would kill me for one) and I also don't start hankering for a new MTB 

Anyone else been riding longer now than they did BITD?

I think I rode from about 85 to 92 BITD.  By my reckoning, that means I'll need to be riding until 2013 to equal that....

good point!  going by actual riding hours, the amount of time i actually spend on my bike these days, i'll probably have to ride until i'm about 90 to equal what i'd done before.

This is very true, and the reason why i can never see myself getting to be as good as I was BITD!  Heavy sobs

[hunterdubber]

First time  Jan 82 to  Jan 87 ( hours , as late as we could everynight ) 

This time Feb 2006 riding once a week, just not enough,,,,

but looking on internet for anything BMX related, about 23hours  a day

From 82 to about mid 87,with a real bike anyway.
Started back up with the same bike in mid 05 thru today,since I work now I probably will ride over a longer timeframe but not as much per day as BITD,if I was not in school I'd be on the bike somewhere but now if I'm not at work it's a miracle to be able to ride.
