Everyone should have a career. And there are certainly worse careers than the endless quest for the perfect bike. But DeeGee, if you're ever gonna ride a century, you're gonna at least have to LOOK at real road bikes. There are many that are fairly friendly to the foibles of the 50+ crowd (including forgiving geometry and low gears). Serious question: Are you ready to take the step?
