48. Old enough that I should have gained some wisdom. That didn't happen.

I do believe we have a totally normal bell-curve going here. An older* bell-curve than I expected, but a bell curve.

Most cyclists actually tend to the older demographic when they get serious about getting healthy......something about that mortality thing.....

I always figured I'd die young. When that didn't happen, I decided to take care of myself a bit better, and settle in for the long haul.

I'm 66. I don't believe it, but I've said it.
Just an overweight guy struggling to become a shrinking biker Clyde with one or two posts here and in the Over 50 Forum

I'm 29.
part of the reason I started cycling is that I don't want to start my 30's as the fat f*ck that I am now!
Unfortunately there is no sport that can reverse male pattern baldness.

I agree with that 100%
I think for me it's because school is long gone and finished, career is in place and going well, I own my own home and all the toy's I want and life in general is easy going with no worries, I'm loving my 30's.
