How old are you? How long have you been riding?

This summer will be 3 years for me. It was definitely my bike-loving super active BF who got me into it. (And I'm 27 btw)

I'm 49. Injured on a bike at age 10...rode only when absolutely necessary in college and vet school. Vet school BF did a coast to coast and that really impressed me but I was really, really scared to ride.

Started back on my own and this is my 4th summer.

I'm 52. Rode as a kid - in fact my favorite gift to receive was a new bike. I got into riding when I was 27 and stopped at age 37, started back up again at 51.

It's awesome that so many of us are over 40, over 50....

I am so inspired by all of you!!!

I honestly feel like when I turned 50 (the year I started riding again) I re claimed some of the best things of my younger days...like bikes and collies...;-)

I'm 48. I rode from age about-7 to 33, and took it back up again two years ago.

My BF and I are very new to cycling. I bought a bike to ride to work and then bought another bike to ride to work in HALF the time! Been riding since Feb of this year. We've really been enjoying our weekend riding adventures together and I can't imagine us going back to our old, everyday-type of weekends. Lots to learn but we're on our way.

Been at it for a little over a year now. I will be here 12+ years from now as well if I have anything to say about it. :D

Rode as a kid but pretty much stopped after I got my driver's license. Bike commuted for a year in graduate school, and then nothing for about 20 years. I've been riding steadily for the last 3 years or so.

I'm 25 and started seriously riding four years ago. I've been mountain biking, for the most part, and just picked up road riding this year.

I also had a bike as a kid/teen- used it for commuting to jobs in summer and sometimes school.
My first "real" bike ( and bike I love most) in 1984 - did a few triathlons and then stopped riding when I went back to university ( bike in 1 province - self in another)- started riding again once I had more $ again. Mountain biking at first and just got my new road bike 2 yrs ago- I still feel like a newbie:)

oops forgot to add I am 43- soon to be 44:)

I rode a mtn bike for 4 years or so, pre babies. Continued to ride a bit after the first baby, but gave it up after the second. Fast forward 10.5 years, and I got me another mtn bike, then 6 weeks later got my first road bike. That was just a couple of months ago. I love it...I feel like a kid on my bike! I'm now 38....

Was doing spin classesfor 3 yrs and one day someone e-mailed me telling me that his friend had a road bike for sale. Looked at it and decided that was it. Bought one and never looked back. I was 37. Rode when I was younger but that doesn't count. For some odd reason, I feel so sexy on a Road bike. WEIRD...

47. Ex-marathon runner who didn't have time to train once the girls came along. Needed to do something, so started cycling 3 years ago after watching DH make the same transition. The girls and I were his SAG support for RAIN (Ride Across INdiana -- 160 miles, one day, one way), and I thought it looked like soooo much fun. That was all it took!

I'm 28 and besides riding as a kid, just got my pretty pretty Trek 2.3 in April, intending to ride only in order to train for a triathlon. Well, I have completely fallen in LOVE with my bike, and I know I'll be riding as much as I can for many many many years!!!!! :D

I'm a 57 year old grandma. My best present ever as a youngster was a blue bike.
I've had a few years where I didn't make time to ride (college-career changes). My hubby rides with me on occasion, but was always good to watch our 7 kids when I wanted to ride. I feel like I'm still warming up - slow and steady but looking forward to what future bike trails bring my way.
