[QUOTE=jgscisum;18872194]This thread is about my sister. What say everyone else about this situation??


I'm 75 and I stopped riding in pace lines 10 years ago. Maybe older guys don't ride as much but I found a lack of focus by many of the riders and hitting the ground at 65 takes a lot longer to get over than at 40 or 50.


I especially found pulled back muscles tough to get over. In the past 10 years I've been on the ground twice and they were both low speed runs into pit holes.
