When I was your age my dear daughter told me," Mom, you know you are not really middle age. How many 104 year old people do you know?" What does she know, she's only 30! At 49 I decided I did not want to go into the last half of my life out of shape. I lost 40 lbs. with Weight Watchers, became a certified scuba diver at 53, and started rideing my bike at age 56. I finished my first 4 day tour of 60-80 miles a day this fall at age 59. If this is insanity, so be it! I feel better physically and better about myself than I have in years. Long live biking insanity!
