    Wait until you gals retire.

    Around here, there are some SERIOUS riders who are also very slow. They're in their late 60s to mid 70s, ride thousands of miles a year, and typically take off for a month-long or longer unsupported bike tour every year or two, at a moving average of 12 mph or slower. I can't ride with them except to start together and maybe they'll have arrived at the restaurant by the time we finish breakfast. But they are real riders and no question about it, and I don't really get the impression they're much slower than they were in their prime. (Not least because there are also some people the same age who can kick my azz.) They just have more time to ride.
