I have 4 bikes from the 30's - 3 from the 40's - 10 from the 50's all older than me and I was born in the 50's even if I act like I was born in 1997.

Very nice collection you have @biggs682, and that's a very interesting bike "stand" in pic 7 !!

I ride two that are older than me.

One is my father-in-law's old Cinelli Riviera (1960s, not sure of exact date)

The other is a Raleigh Light Roadster I restored recently (1950s, again not sure of exact date)

When I can find some suitable wheels, I'm going to finish off a 1937 Raleigh Popular (28" wheel roadster) that's currently in pieces in the garage

Looking forward to seeing some pics of everyone else's older bikes!

I have a lot of bikes, I try to ride them all at least occasionally, some are older than my parents.

My current daily rider is probably 1 year older than I am.
