Today is the birthday of American Honda’s Miguel Duhamel, but no one seems to be sure exactly how old this living legend is–or if it really matters.

The 2002 AMA Media Guide has Duhamel’s birthday listed as May 26, 1967, but the 2003 AMA Media Guide lists Duhamel’s birthday as being in 1968. Whether he is 35 or 36 years old today, Duhamel’s place in the AMA record book as the all-time leader of Superbike race wins (26), Supersport race wins (40) and Supersport Championships (5) is certain.
