wow what a great story!

I had recently been thinking about age and riding. I think that cycling is something that keeps people vital - it's a good exercise b/c it isn't weight bearing on the knees, and keeps the knees flexible due to the rotationary movement.

On the other hand, I recently saw some 80ish riders and thought to myself "Man, if they were to fall that could do some really catastrophic damage to brittle bones".

Jack's story gives me hope! He fell and made it out OK. And if something bad were to happen, at age 96, you could only think that you'd rather it happen than to not bike at all.
