LOL!...well, you're never too old to try something new. Man, my mountainbiking has been suffering this past year since getting the KLX. My Moab trip this year was the first time in 15 years that I didn't do the 2-week mountainbike deal...KLX instead. With a few mods it's a great bike and extremely capable. I did dirt motors way before mountainbikes, and the KLX has rejuvenated my dirt motor interest quite a bit.
