Are there many, some, a few of us over 50??

I just re read some of your stories and I too am inspired by what each of us has gone through in this crazy world. And here we are thrown together by a wonderful sport called cycling! How amazing is that!

I must say that this forum has renewed my love for women's groups (yeah, we had those "women's lib group meetings in the 60's and 70's too)and for the value I place on our friendships. There's just something special about being around all of you.

Saturday I rode with some women I'll be doing the STP with in July. It was so much fun. None of this hammering stuff, just riding along chatting away and enjoying the scenery. Yes, I ride with the guys too, but I must say it isn't the same. Just a different flavor if you will.

So, while I might inspire you, you all provide lots of inspiration for me!

Thanks, and keep on writing. This is an interesting thread that brings back many past memories for me too!

Same here (although I am only 28).

Bike Goddess, will you give us some identifying info so those of us on STP can say hi? I will be on a bright blue tandem with my husband, probably wearing red or yellow soccer jerseys.

And, by the way, a bunch of my friends went to Woodstock, but I was in the hospital having surgery when they did---although I have to say that my otherwise pretty liberal parents would NEVER have let me go anyway.

It was a ton of fun and I wouldn't have missed it for anything.
