The term is used to describe older people who when they retire
or have a mid life crisis decide to buy a high powered bike.
They have enough cash to buy the best, but lack the experience
to handle them. Generally they have either never owned a bike
or used to ride years ago, but lack recent experience.
Thus are prone to accidents due (in part) to over confidence.
Eg - "I am older and know how to drive a car so I must be able
to handle a bike"
or
"I rode these things 20 years ago, how different can they be now"
