I agree growing old is great but growing up is over rated

Since we're talking about age and sled heritage, what does everyone look like?

I'll go first...stay thirsty my friends!

All in good humor!

Now 57, on Yamis since 2004 when I got back into it. Ran Rupp nitros in late 70's early 80's. Fast as hell but not nearly as reliable as what I have now.

I'm 58 and my first sled was a 1969 Polaris Charger which was a tank at the time.
Gas tank at the rear of the sled. My first ride on a sled was on my cousins brand new 1971 Single cylinder Doo TNT. I was hooked. After that it was too many Doo's to list until I bought my 2003 RX1 which I still use and really enjoy. The Doo's keep trying to lure me back though!! We'll see what this fall brings. Who knows????

I figure I might as well add to this post.

I am 31, my first sled that I remember my family having as a child was a 1969 SL351 (I think thats the right model. Was white and red with round headlight) with a single cylinder 335 Bombardier engine in it. (Dont ask me how I remember that at 4 years old.) The first sled I drove was when I was 4 or 5 was a 250 twin elan and I thought I had the world by the tail! I still remember the feeling. Guess thats what got me hooked on sleds.

My own first sled was a 1981 540 SRV which I managed to blow up within a couple months. I then bought a 1998 Arctic Cat Cougar 550 and lost 2 motors and a stator in one winter! My next sled was my current sled the 09 Nytro. It wasnt perfect at first but its close now, and I love this sled. When I get another one I plan on keeping this one.
