I am secure in my Fredliness. Chicks dig my tricycle.

I have decided that you're for real. That's a scary thought.

I am conflicted. I absolutely think a 44 y.o. could outsprint a 20 something who already burned his legs up.

A guy who is not spent has a huge advantage over anyone who is. Especially young guys who are all balls and no brains and tend to work too hard so they run out of gas prematurely. BTW, trying to...

I wait with baited breath for tales of exploits...

Actually, there is.

OP didn't have enough scratch to buy good STI and he would have limited his upgrade options. So a number of people advised that he get good DT instead.

If I left my bikes...
