Of course not; gloating and telling people for years about having better health than others who may not as be as fortunate or attribute it solely to bicycling and being smarter than those who don't is more than a bit over the top, IMO.

BTW I'm 67 and fortunately in very good health and am alert enough to know that good prostate and colon health as well as good lab tests are not likely attributable to bicycle riding for most of the last 61 years. As a result, I do not boast about being oh-so-smart or oh-so-healthy because I choose to ride a bike.
