Sure, but I think there's a point with some when they are losing their vision, their hearing, their hair, that a little wisdom falls out too. :lol:


go slow and be gentle grasshopper, and never forget about "old age and treachery", not a good idea to point out a woman's age, or git on my lawn, ya punk! :D :D

I'm 21 with 5 years of experience. Been riding bikes since I was like 4 or 5, building them and tearing them apart since 7,
started with a big wheel and a pedal car, then BMX bikes jumping curbs and dirt ramps. Recently got back into bikes and now collect 50's-60's Schwinn
middleweight beach cruisers. Daily ride is a mean off road mountain bike.
It doesn't matter what I paid for it, it matters what it's WORTH. I never buy anything I will regret KEEPING.

I am 38, as of today.

It's weird to think that despite being so young, I'll be retiring from the reserves next year. I can say I'm retired. I'll be down to only one career, but don't you worry, I know how my free weekends will be filled!

42. Just got back into riding bikes a few months back and found this site. Digging it very much.
I've got 2 boys ages 6 and 2 and a wife who has no interest in cycling :(
I'm a engineer at a local TV station and a Cub Scout leader. Other interest include playing banjo and sleeping, though I don't get to do either very much anymore.
