New Older Cyclists

[CyclChyk]

PyxiChick - I am .... ahem..... 38 and I jsut started riding in July. I too average about 100+ miles a week (when I manage to stay "upright" that is).

This is how I look at it:

I am becoming the tomboy I always wanted to be. I am reliving my youth the way I would have wanted to the first time. I am getting HEALTHY for the first time in ... well.... EVER. I want to do a triathalon BADLY (altho I think my feet will prevent that from ever happening).

I live off MTV (lovelove the RealWorld/RoadRules challenge shows); teenage agnst movies are my favorite. And in my mind, I am 23.

Am I too old to cycle?? Who cares. I am just having the time of my life!! And stick around here for a bit. You will find you are far from being alone.

YAY.............I could have written this myself, with two exceptions. I don't want to do triathalon and I am slightly older than you hun.......hmmmmm, nearly 57!

I am like a big kid, I get up early to do my boring housework etc then regardless of weather, I have to go off on my bike before work, although I don't start work until midday.

If I can't go out for whatever reason, I sulk cos
