There's a young woman named Feyala who has a wonderful ride report called "Wherever I May Roam - One Woman Living on a DR650" - and she did a neat job of painting her own bike...here's the details:

We are all getting older! But we don't have to quit riding!

Jack sent this link to a few people I am sure, but I wanted to post it on ADV, if it hasn't already been posted. Scroll down about 1/3 of the way and watch the 20 minute video of the two older guys and how they live their life on two wheels! Truly inspiring!
