I love when I see him riding along with the group at 20 some odd miles an hour at the age of 91. I am going to train hard in my attempt to be like him when I grow up! Oh, and yes, the top time in the time trials came from the 65-69 age group even though there were two ex pros and three who had done the race across America in the competition. Aged athletes rule!!
Sure would be nice to see a recent action photo of John Sinabaldi on his bike.
