Lots of room for improving. Use that frustration you are feeling to be determined to get those improvements. Gains come slowly, intervals are the pathway. Also do core strength exercises, its not just the legs. Additionally, I warm up slower than some. But once loose and rolling I can roll pretty well for a long period. Listen to your body. Does it like to go hard from the start, or does it take a while to get moving and then takes off.
And welcome to a fun bunch. You'll enjoy it here.
There is a 60 year old rider in Henderson, NV where I live. He kicks all the 20somethings rear ends, as well as mine. Cycling does not care about age.
