BMX - Real Old

thinking of gettin a bmx bike to play with I am not planning to do alot of big jumps or big tricks just have fun and get some exercise I am 52 years old 5ft10in and 155 pounds thinking about a dk 6pack am I going crazy or do ya'll think its ok

all i have to say is congratulations on being 52 and still wanting to have fun...

BMX is a lot of fun, I'm 33 (34 in a month!) and have been doing it for 18+ years. You are in better shape than I am in (gotta cut back on the Pepsis) so I would think you would have no problem going at it.

The hard part is the same as every hard part of growing old: Your flexibility may not be what it was, you will take longer to get up to speed, you may wear out a little faster. But, there is nothing specific that will stop you from riding and having fun.

Probably the weirdest thing for me is making friends with 15-18 year old kids whose parents wonder about who the hell I am. I'm just a rider, and almost every parent I have met has realized that really quickly. I think it gets them thinking positive thoughts when older people are involved and set good examples.

Noooo!!!!!!! CHILD MOLESTER!!! I'm just kidding BMXTRIX... you're not catholic, are you? jk jk jk jk jk jk jk jk jk jk jk jk jk !!!!!!!!!!!!!

14 year olds on bikes are to old for me anyway.

i now have enourmous respect for you.
keep pedalling!

i respect it that your are still wanting to ride....
the bike u want depends on what your planning to ride....

Awesome.... I'm just a kid at 32 wanting to try BMX then. :) I am dreading the look from my LBS already when I zone into his BMX offerings. heh.

I'm 31 if I can ride when I'm 50 it would be a miracle! Good for ya ! I say try it.
