Like THAT will last.... I just thought I'd give the ol' pendulum a push in a positive direction before all heck broke loose.

Yes!
Now we have to think of something to talk about. Sigh.

1) I like my Scott Cheyenne better than my Atlantis.
2) Horseback riding hurts worse than bike riding.
3) Possums are the ugliest roadkill.

I tossed and turned all night worrying about this whole divisive age thing going on here.
Over the last 2 days I've ridden 62 miles and wondered if that would qualify me for an "I've almost ridden their age in two days." post. It was such a relief to awake to the this Young'ns Thread.

"Young at heart" is a loathsome expression. It invariably translates into "old coot".
I'll have none of it.

My obsessive summertime fear is that a ripe, swollen, several-days-dead raccoon will be run over by a car and that I, riding along in proximity to the car and raccoon (minding my own business) , will be sprayed with hot roadkill juices!

Usually when they are racing an armadillo from the road side to underneath a car or truck tire to see which one can get a tire track over them first.

Can't we all just get along? I'm gong over to the 55 1/2 forum. Maybe I'll find I have something in common with those good folks.
Never trust anyone over 56!!
