Welcome! I am 60 years old and started riding about 4 ears ago after my angioplasti. Initially, I was amazed as to how anyone could possibly enjoy bicycling. My legs, butt, neck/arms, and name were uncomfortable but my wife loved to "cycle" and the cardiologist highly recommended bicyling so I perservered. I have evoved into riding as many 3 to 4 day (supported/credit card) tours as finances permit and we plan our days around riding opportunity/weather. After overcoming my self concieseness, I tried cycling shorts.....won't ride without good quality shorts now.
You are light years ahead of my initiation to cycling......you will only advance in performance and enjoyment accordingly :>)
We look forward to your future posts.
