Best answer yet.
I just turned 57. I've been riding avidly since I was 14 years old, so that's 43 years. I haven't been fitness oriented except in the last two or three years. I've ridden because I enjoy it, and I was happy that fitness was a consequence. But now I'm taking charge of my health, so I'm working on strength and endurance.
I am at my ideal weight. I'm lucky that I have a built-in calorie meter, and I stop eating when I've had enough.
