Im planning on the dez for Tday. BUT, with my surgery still healing Im not gonna be trying hillclimbs n such, just easy trail riding this year. I find my home group of riders is dwindling due to age and permanent injuries. Down to just a few now. I'll be 60 in Dec. If it wasn't for my g-son I may be close to calling it quits too, just too many health issues. I'll keep at it for now and see how it goes.
I haven't made up my mind about any winter rides, other than Maui in Feb.
I will never be too old to ride...
Just need to stay in shape, take care of the health and ride as much as you can...I hope not too, but I sure have lived long enough to hear people say that.........but hell, lots of them that said it died young too, so they made their word stick
