Going on 63!! I do tend to see more men my age cycling, but I also see a few women. I started cycling seriously in the early '60's, NO helmet, toe clips with cleats, sew-up tires, wool jerseys and shorts with "real" chamois, my bike, a Frejus (Italian) with Campy Gran Sport componants; gave up cycling for a while, returned in the '70's, left again and returned a few years ago. What is interesting to me is that the things I loved as a teenager - cycling being one of them, are the exact things I love now. I don't even feel that I am any older!! Even during the years I wasn't riding, beautiful road bikes always caught my eye. Go "baby boomers"!!
