Some of the 25-35 yr old's aren't but most are. People think I'm some kind of "specimen" because I look more fit and younger than what they expect. And, them I might add. On Saturday morning I go out with my club for our weekly ride and I look around and, once again, I'm the overweight old guy. At this point I just laugh at myself and remind myself that we just "ain't normal." Anyone else having those kinds of experiences?
