Wow, way to go!
I am a 34yo mom of four and am just getting into it. I am so loving it, but frustrated because I'm almost emarrassed to be seen on my sad looking bike. I just don't get enought riding time right now with all of my kids playing soccer. The only riding buddies I have are my dh and his cousin (also a man). I would love to find some other women to ride with. Your story is definately an encouragment!
