And after 40 we all have to exercise and watch what we eat to be healthy.
Are you a doctor?

I had a full physical around the time I turned 52. My doctor said that guys my age all say one of two things:

1. I'm in good shape, but I'm concerned, so how can I stay that way?

2. I'm in bad shape. How do I get in good shape?

Of course, I said number 1, but I'm just more concerned than I used to be.

[MENTION=462449]Whib[/MENTION], that's really great to hear. Welcome to the sport that many of us have loved all our lives and that a different many of us discovered it later. I've loved to ride since I was four, and I got my first ten speed at age 14 and have hardly taken a break since then.
