Age is trying to discern if that click or creak is coming from your bicycle or from your body.

Age is finding a severely sloping top-tube or even a mixte an attractive option.

Age is considering a recumbent due to back or prostate issues.

Age is knowing the difference between the words "prostate" and "prostrate".

Age is switching from "masher" to "spinner".

Age is obsessing over nutrition and supliments as much as if you were in training; except, you're not in training.

Age is wishing the default font on bikeforums was larger.
