Hi!
Please tell us your age. 54
1. What type of bikes do 50+ folks ride?
I just bought a new bike, which I feel lucky to have found a frame to fit me. I rode my last frame for 30 years. I bought a Cervelo and I love it! It feels light as a feather and it has made riding fun again.
2. Do you take any special supplements/vitamins/minerals as you have grown older?
I take vitamin D, but nothing else, i get the rest from eating well.
3. How much do you feel you have "slowed down" if any?
I took a few years off from riding, I don't feel slower, but my recovery slower and I am not building muscle as fast.
4. How long have you been biking? New, around a while, biked all your life?
Riding seriously for 30 years, but had a bike since I was a kid.
5. What type of biking do you do? Long rides, touring, short rec rides.
I generally do 20-50 mile rides, and I enjoy riding hills. I know that makes me a bit insane, but I like the feeling of conquring them.
6. How often do you bike? Your approximate annual mileage?
I ride 2-3 days a week. Who knows how many miles I do a year.
If you haven't already, perhaps you might indicate your age. It helps others to see that folks 50+ do great things.
