I'm older than I think I am, but not as old as I feel.

Us young ones ( 36-45 ) thought we had better get out there and start travelling now as you oldies seem to be enjoying yourself so much. Mind in twenty years with fuel prices and road tolls in could be the end of the M/H traveller
I'm old enough to afford a small motorhome and young enough (at heart at least) to enjoy it.

Prize for the oldest member? What is the reasoning behind this? Because of their age they win a prize? Its a little odd! Why not just say, prize for the first 50 year old who responds or prize for the youngest member (for persevering despite being outnumbered by octogenarians!)
The reason behind this was I thought it would be nice to hear of someone hopefully 75-80+ who was still enjoying motorhoming.
Obviously as you get older there is more temptation to sit on your arse and watch TV

The same could be said for the youngsters though. Rather than spending evenings and weekends stuck in front of the pc/playstation/xbox etc, they are getting out and exploring, discovering a hobby that will hopefully last them a lifetime.
There are lots of older people doing it, they already know its the best way to explore, stay young, have a cheap holiday and chill!
I know loads of retirees (or not if they can help it) who are getting out there and doing it for themselves. My mams next door neighbour (for example) doesn't own a motorhome but has just turned 92, jets abroad to Aus, NZ and USA at least 5 times a year (started doing this at aged 80), performs chores for the younger (younger than 90!) people in the street and joins the scrum at car boots every sunday!
Old doesn't mean getting bedsores and grumbling!! .. and I don't think its necessarily fair to get a prize just for having more birthdays than anyone else, you can't stop them from happening, you have one every year. It kind of knocks the other 99.99% of people out of the competition.
To even it out a little, I'll fund a years membership for the youngest member, if you let me know who they are!
We just need someone now to fund membership for the person who has overcome the most adversity to motorhome and for someone who has travelled the furthest north in the world in a motorhome etc etc ....
Full years membership for the youngest member?
I'm three years old!! LOL You can pay for my membership!!(Do I have to prove my age?....knew there would be a catch )

Andrew, I like your poll better, it put's me in the 56 to 65 group rather than the 61 to 65.
Just make's me feel that little bit younger.
Well you know what they say, if you spend time around younger people it makes you feel younger
