I rode as a kid, but not when I was any older than 10 or so.
I am 23 now, and just got back on a bike again not even two weeks ago just to do some recreational/fitness riding on local trails. Since I'm already a runner and swimmer, I think I've also filled the missing link to start doing triathlons, which will hopefully fill my competitive void left after years of soccer!Somewhere behind the athlete you've become and the hours of practice and the coaches who have pushed you...is a little girl who fell in love and never looked back... do it for her.

43 yo...same as most replies - rode as a kid, then off an on since then. Bought a new bike this past xmas (for a cycling vacation in Corsica last month). Started riding in January...totally hooked, again! will have 1700 miles in after this weekend's Albuquerque Century.
BTW - cycling trip in Corsica was AMAZING! Great views, great food (and wine), great people...350 miles with lots of climbing, which means lots of descents

54 here - rode to school and back on my bike from Kindergarten through grade 6. Then rode horses through mid-30's. After that, back on an ancient road bike, then a mountain bike with my college-age son (starting in '94), then back to road bikes in 2002.....
