Definitely NOT too old! I raced this past weekend, and towed around two ladies half my age - they were collegiate (and I am about to be 40). Yesterday, our team's ages ranged from 12 (we have an AWESOME junior racer) to 65 (our club's national 'cross champion for 65+). The 65 year old is taking up racing for the FIRST SEASON!

So, phooey to you on being too old .

And, I agree with VB - just because you buy the bike does NOT mean you have to race...
