A young 60
Six - O and quite happy.
Began going to Baja in 1975 as checkpoint help for the Score races. Bought a place at Angel's Camp near La Salina in the early 80s. Quit the racing
scene in 1987 and have enjoyed our many trips "south of the border" with my lively and lovely wife Barbara.

52 and so much to do! First trip 1958 and many more just as far as Rosarito Beach. First grand slam solo was to Cabo on the old road in 1970. Still
feels good on any road. Just resuming my passion and the family loves it too! OH, man, The Los Lonely Boys are on PBS so..........

47 today!
My Mexican love affair began when I went to school in Mazatlan during college. We stayed with a family there, and quickly picked up Spanish thanks to
total immersion. Afterwards, my compadre and I set off on a grand adventure which eventually ended on the beautiful island of Isla Mujeres. I don't
know if I could handle the 2nd class bus service at this advanced age. I got my first taste of Baja when we took the ferry from Mazatlan to what was
then the sleepy little town of La Paz. It took twenty years to make it back to Mexico. I took my family down for a vacation in Baja Sur last year and
have been stricken with the fever since in a big way.

I'm 68. First trip to Baja 1969 -- Beech Bonanza to strip at what is now Los Barriles. Retired just a few miles from that spot 10 years ago. I have
not been back to the states since.

54 - born and raised in Bakersfield so when I first drove thru TJ many years later I felt right at home........
Let's have some fun here and guess the age of some Baja-Babes who seem to be avoiding this thread:
Jeans would be about 35.
TravelPearl must be, well,,,,, how old is dirt? Least that.
M: requires some math: add up the age of all the old parts plus the age of all the new parts and divide by the total number of parts - maybe 15? 
Baja Nana: hay-sus kreesto - not only do you have new parts but she's been smoked a bit too - and you gotta take trblmkr and add 25 - so must be
close to 100!
MAH: this is hard - being married to MH must age you in dog years - just vehicle hassles alone would do it. But then think of all those years and
all those smooth stones - gotta count for something.

Age is in the mind!
Hard to avoid this thread without seeming to hide the age factor. Will turn 64 this October, ran the 12K Bay to Breakers last weekend (clothes on!).
Do 20 miles a week here in the Nipomo sand dunes, do several 70-80 mile backpack trips in the high Sierra each summer. Sure happy to be able!
Did Baja in mid 50's with parents, spent summers after started teaching on mainland Mexico by car down to Yucatan, Belize, to Costa Rica. Many, many
years spent summers on the mainland on both coasts, N to S and E to W. Started Baja in earnest in early 80's, had a home in Todos Santos for 11 years
(when they spoke Spanish in that town), and now spend a month in the Baja dirt hiking and backpacking with buddies, then 6 months in La Paz and
environs living aboard our small sailboat during the winter. Nice to be in the company of so many wonderful Baja folks on this board!.

Boy! Do you have large ones. Now I understand why you do not even list the town you in which you live.
I agree that we need to hear from the gals--you can fudge a bit if you wish.
(I edited this because I re-read the guys post and doubt that he will reach 55)
