For all Bullet Electra and AVL owners.

I am running a thread on UCE and Campfire relative to the average age of RE Owners.

Vintage and retro is what appeals to my aesthetic sensibility.  I am 49, and wondered how the RE brand would be carried on after the old guard is no longer able to sit upright.

Responses have been interesting so far, so forgive me if I intrude and ask you to participate in my little survey.

Current average age of RE owner is 51.49 years.

There is a definite trend going on here.

If you have contributed to this survey on one of the other threads, I apologize for the redundancy.

Thanks DPOTE.

You are the 98th respondent to my little survey.

I figured 100 responses would give me a reliable sample group, so I am almost ready to publish my findings (opinions that is).

As of now, we are at an average age of 49.58 years.
