Never stop living…………..
Life is never over….. it’s not over, til it’s over…. Just like that one man, I’ll see my beautiful bride again…
I’m 82 and still ride!!!!
Al you can say is WOW, I’m going to throw all my MEDs away, Well maybe not that but WOW…
WOW!!!!!!WOW!!!!
I’M 58 with a 2 year old, those guys are an inspiration….that takes the fears away
“Oh what fun it is to ride . . . . . .” to live. Live to ride!
It made me cry, thank you for sending it to me.
Yes, go running and stay active :100 is only a NUMBER !!
Excellent, very inspiring. Their motivation gave them life again. Thanks
I I’m past 80–and ready to ride.
Commercials aren’t that good because we don’t try to make them good anymore, just make them plentiful. Every commercial break these days is 4-5 minutes long with 7-10 commercials. I only record shows now so I can zip past them. They spend more and more money for shorter airtime and are seen less and less.
I dunno, I think Madison Avenue still attracts a lot of good talent .. of course not quite as fun as in the days before the Feds got involved. I’d still walk a mile for a Camel and I’d certainly rather fight than switch.
EXCELLENT Story. Bugger what life deals you, kick it’s but. Gather your friends get on a bike (or trike) and ride. ENJOY LIFE while you can, none of us are getting out of it alive. Have a good one.
Excellent and truly inspiring….
This is – quite simply – beautiful. Thank you!
it’s not the age of our life, that counts
it’s the life in your heart.

Well its basically a great short film and who remembers the name of the bank? Indeed what does it have to do with a bank. All the comments are about the moral to live life to the full…also, for me, about long friendships and shared experience and mutual support. Really inspiring short film, rubbish advert as the last thing that film made me think about was the bank, other than taking all my money out and having a great time…no bank would make money on that basis….
For Geno. Go for it. Just do it. 😉
It’s a good advertisement if at any point during the film you say to yourself, “I’m not going to wait until I’m old, ill, deaf, and alone to make my dream come true. I’m not going to let anything stand in the way of fulfilling my dream,” and if anything about your dream requires capital that TC Bank might be able to provide.
Actually, I made a note to look for the sponsor ( TC Bank , Taiwan).
I would make an effort to patronize sponsors of products and services that brought great life stories like this to commercial TV instead of the drivel we see everyday.
Truly inspirational!!!
Thanks for the inspiration. I’m going to the gym this afternoon.
Yay! Loved it!
Excellent! Great example of infinity and purpose.
It’s not the dates on your headstone that are important, but what you did between them.
Great commercial and equally awe inspiring commentary! Thanks folks!!!
What makes this ad great is the men’s desire to KEEP actively living instead of giving in to age, illness, etc. What fun!!! Wish we could each find a way.
I am a 60 year old mother of three and I play competitive ice hockey with my three kids and a great group of guys – average age of 30! (A true Canadian,lol!) I hope I can still play 10 or more years from now.
Way to go Joyce ! .

Inspiration to live life to the fullest…….makes me think of Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev

Nice to see this old video is still going around and having a positive impact .
I’m old and survived a fatal Motocycle accident in 2008 , I walk with a cane now but I still like to ride my Moto . it really opens your mind and helps you to appreciate life .
the Social Secretary of one of the Moto Clubs I’m in , rode his vintage Yamaha until he was _84_ and couldn’t any longer , we still miss him .
Ride hard , far and wide but always _SAFELY_ .

This was an e-mail from my dentist (H.I.) a few years back , I was reviewing old e-mails and my phone would not play the video ,but I know it well . Reminds me of my father , old but was willing . I’m sorry we did not have the time to take a ride together . I miss you so much . I’m going to make sure my son won’t be able to say the same! You just watch dad! MAF
You hit the nail on the head Michael ~ I began taking my Son on Moto rides when he was 6 and bought him his own Moto when he was 13 , paid for his MSF training when he was 17 and we’ve spent decades of happy miles riding to – gether .
Of course , he learned to ride far better than I ever did and is faster and (I think) safer than I ever was .
Now my 2 – 1/2 year oldGrand Daughter is learning to ride her own Moto with clutch….
They grow so fast .

Thats Life, Old Bikers never die, they just run out of gas!
Super film
Thanks for awakening me.I am 84,feeling sorry for myself but NO MORE! Will start exercising mor,using my energy in a more productive way,awaking my body to the enormous potential I now it has! Thanks!!!
Sorry sold the triumph can’t go for a ride today.
But I have a dream we all will someday soon.
Yesterday I was diagnosed with degenerative arthritis of the lower lumber affecting my ability to sit long periods as pillion on my hubby’s HD Road King and Fat Bob.
This ad has inspired me to never give up and forsake our dream of the ride together.
I’m 63 young and I’ll find a way so I’ll never be left behind.
Forever & Beyond, love of life, ride on.
God this was great …… It Made me cry ….. I felt so wonderful for them all … I can relate …. i’m 72 and proud of it ….. but they made me fell 52 …… WOW ….. Great, Just Great ….
great story on how to live life to the fullest. they were not going to take it lying down or in a chair. now they have something to Iive for and you only get one go around
I am 70 years of age and have had the very good fortune to have keen able to ride for over 55years. Had to stop die to ill health a few years ago, however a bike is still in the garage at the farm, waiting for me to get back at it.
This incredible commercial made my heart swell with pride and has given me a boost. I am determined to be back on the road on a bike in the near future…. riding (both solo and with my wife and son) opened up new worlds and loads of adventures and challenges…. none of which I regret….
thanks again and i’ll see you on the road…
Ride safe
Ride aware…
Wow, how beautiful, it made me cry and yes with the Super Bowl coming up I wonder if any of the commercials will be able to compete. Maybe I should get a Motorcycle.

I’ll be 71 next month-Feb 2016. I understand their losses as in less than a year I lost 2 sisters and a B I L. Been riding since I was 13. Was in Spearfish S D June of 15. Going to Morgantown W V June of 16 for our rally. I live in South Central Missouri and still manage 13-14 thousand miles a year on 2 wheels. Amazes me still how fast my aches and pains go away when I put her in gear and let the clutch out. Most days I just follow the front wheel with no real destination in mind. Worked the flight deck on an Aircraft Carrier in Nam and M/C riding is close to the same rush. I’ve lost family and friends over the years BUT I meet a lot of interesting folks when I ride. And I’m NOT shy bout the M/C I ride-you ask me I WILL let you know about her. RIDE SAFE.
This is not only a commercial but from a true story. There’s even a documentary about it (documentary name: Go Grandriders!)
Hsieh hsieh, Pei – I will look for that!
I thought this was most inspiring. Thanks. More to come.
This year will be my 29th consecutive cross country trek to Sturgis. I ride alone, no distractions, just me, nature and God and can personally state that the experience, the adventure, is like no other… I get “it.”
such an inspiration. WONDERFUL. Enjoy life to the fullest. You only have one chance. TERRIFIC.
the only regrets I have in life are the things I didn’t do.
A big tear in my eye!!!!!!!
Yes, life has been given us to be lived.
I am 74. Went moose hunting in Russia last Fall. Got one, too.
Thank you. You immediately caught my heart–as this voice, music, genius photography, & soul-stirring story connected to some in the past that I’ve tried to save: all from the same bank.
I’m 78, and a retired nurse. No motorcycle– but an antique gold concert Harp that I play all day in the Hospital, from floor to floor. (Also putting them at it, as I catch their amazed faces–playing solo–while I’m returning their cell phone, a moment later.) For two minutes, their pain vanishes. This volunteer job, once a mo, for 7 yrs, needs no other payment…
Harp Therapy… Cycle Therapy– can we be related?
I would be so honored, if so. Please let me help you to continue this priceless gift you send with your films.
Thank you. Bless you. Never stop!
Here I am 83 years young in my big old recliner watching this wonderful commercial and I want to run out and buy a Motorcycle,who wants to join me .I just hate those Helmets but I’ll obey the rules,Nana Marcia
Very inspiring. I’m turning 60, 2 harleys, 1 yamaha, and 1 rigid frame harley. Ain’t ready to slow down yet!
I started riding when I was 69 – love it 🙂
brought a tear to my eye. but pretty sure you could have tagged any old brand on to the end of that thing.
