With his black leather jacket and red bandana, Bob Mansell certainly looks the part of a Harley-Davidson enthusiast. But at 81, he also turns some heads.

“I was wondering what I was going to do this summer and I thought, ‘I’m going to take a ride on my trike,'” said the long-haired octogenarian, who last month rode his motorcycle solo from Edmonton to London, Ont., to visit family.

“To me, it was no big deal, but a lot of people out west, they were wishing me a safe ride and, ‘Be careful,’ and all this,” said the former millwright, who is staying in London for another week.
