40 doesn't hurt
As long as you can show something for 40 years, and you can.

Have you ever read Jupiter's Travels, and the recent sequel?

Absolutely
Author is Ted Simon.

Jupiter's Travels is his book about going around the world on a Trumpet in 1973-75 and it's SUPERB.

Sequel is called (off the top of my head) Jupiter's Return when he retraces his steps, aged 70, on a BMW.

Beautiful, compassionate, emotive writing.

EDIT - Sequel is called Dreaming of Jupiter. Read Jupiter's Travels first or the re-visit will make no sense.
