Hithertofore let it be known that:
- In accordance with the sacred traditions of the Ancient and Honorable 50+ Forum today I have ridden my requisite Birthday Ride;
- That tomorrow being my 67th birthday, music commitments tomorrow forced me to ride my Birthday Ride one (1) day early;
- That I compensated for the extra day by riding an additional six (6) miles further than required, for a total of 73 miles;
- That said Birthday Ride was accomplished on a suitably vintage Masi Gran Criterium;
- That said Birthday Ride was accomplished on a cold and brutally windy day, winds 15mph gusting to 30mph.
I therefore request continuation of my 50+ Forum membership, as I shall always remain at least 50 years old or older.
