A 65+'r with a 50+'r Jersey
Since many other folks have posted their 50+ Jerseys . . . .
OK, it is with GREAT trepidation that I post a picture of a 68+'r wearing a 50+ Jersey. But, since we don't have a 65+ Jersey, this will have to do!
No nasty comments, please! (I just finished a 4 hour ride)

Hey - it's a 3 car garage - wait until I show the other door (well, it actually looks the same):D

maybe just the photo, but it looks like new handlebar tape is in order.
Other than that, you look all set to go.
You need matching gloves!

Well, actually, I just finished a 4 hour ride - so I guess I am all set to stop!
And, it is the picture = bar tape is fine.

I bought about 10 pair of these gloves on sale, because I need gloves with little or no padding. They no longer make this glove, and I don't quite know what I will do when the last pair wears out! They only come in blue.

At 68 you have earned New Gloves.

It's nice that you bought tires and bar tape to match the jersey.
And I hear you on gloves without padding. That's my preference and they're very difficult to find. When I can find them, they're very expensive ($50 for the last pair I bought.) Now those thickly padded spawn-of-oven-mitt gloves are a dime-a-dozen. Doesn't seem right.

If you are all real nice, I will post a picture of me in my Spider Man Jersey!
The little kids just love it - and they point at me and say "Spider Man, Spider Man!"
Err . . . or maybe I won't
AND...(drum roll) he rides a Lemond.
It doesn't get any better than that, boys and girls.:thumb:

68+ is still in the 50+ range, even using the New Math. :50:
Wear it with pride where ever you ride. :giver:

That's how the bike came from the factory, and I have maintained the tire color and the tape color. I like them, and the Lemond is now getting to have sort of a "vintage" look about it.

Too many muscles in my shoulders and chest. I'd rip the jersey!
