    Hill slug sez "I actually picture Ginger from the Chicken Run movie on a bike!!!"

    I don't want to be a pie! ;-)

    sorry, back to the thread.

    You can do this, riding on a heavier bike just makes you stronger. I still have my ol' GT that I started getting back into riding on, started doing 2-5 mile flat rides. Now I'm 49 and doing the AIDS ride for the 2nd time this year along with 3 other TE'ers (and I wish I had the weekend free to ride the Top Hat with Team Amici. You go girrrls!)

    I may need more coffee but has anyone pointed you to "over 40 show of hands" thread? There's a lot of us out there.

    Looks like you got a lot of support, advice, and warm welcomes! Not much more to add but I still would like to say, welcome BikerHen to the best cycling forum out here and to continue doing what you are doing right now. Which is continue to do your weekday rides and your long ride on the weekend. And slowly increase that weekend ride until you reach your 50 mile goal. You'll be there in no time at all. You'll be surprised!

    Go Girl!
