Time Trials

Hi guys,

I am 70, joined in 2005 and have posted a few times. My question at this time is, I would like to start doing some time trials, but have noticed that there are not to many and usually do not have an age group for 70+. I am a runner and I am use to age groups. I live near Annapolis, MD. I have a Triathlon bike. Any recommendations how to find time trials that are old folk friendly. Also, any advice on how to train for them at 70+. I did do a couple about 8 years ago and averaged 21 for 20K. Also, would it be advisable to do road races when your reflex's are not what they use to be. Any old guys in this area interested in doing some speed training and willing to teach me something?

Take care,

John
