Whenever I hear about folks over 60 still competiting I always feel it all comes down to heart...in two ways one is the physical condition to keep up a good pace and the other how much they just love cycling...
I know during this time of the year for me in NYC, the joy really comes out of it with the rain and cold weather but it is the heart that keeps me going in the morning...my wife has officially given up on me...
I must say I think I won as she said next year we can pick a place for vacation that i can bring my bike and ride while her and my daughter can do their thing which usually involves nothing physical ...
any suggestions btw?

Is 40 years too old to try and get into some road racing or even time trials? never did either on that level but do they break them up by age group and where is a good place to go to learn the basics of how to get started on the web?
Thanks all...
Hell No. I’ve been riding for only five years and will turn 63 in January 06. In 05 I participate in the 60 + age group in eight races, placing 1,2 or 3 in seven of them.
