I've been following the Fifty Plus forum all summer, but on Saturday I became eligible for full membership. As per the suggestions on here, I made it official with a 50 mile ride.
I rode the first 25 solo, some road and some trail. Then my boys (11 and 14) joined me on the Montour Trail for the last 25 miles. Great ride!
Brought along a couple beers for the end-of-the-ride celebration, but we stopped at the LBS at mile 48.5, and the owner gave me a bottle of Flower Power to congratulate me. So the party started a little early!
