It sounds trite, but, seriously, it isn't, when I say "it depends upon the event". Some promoters break out, for the men, 35+, 45+, 55+, 60+ fields. Depending upon the the entry numbers, they may race separately. They're also grouped according to category (experience). Generally, men have it better when it comes to race choice than we ladies do, you've got strength in numbers. I think it's safe to say for most road events for the guys, you can be pretty well assured you wouldn't be racing against the "kids" unless you want to.
