Late 50s, single, retired guy here. Reintroduced to biking thru a good friend.And have been badly bitten by the bug for which there is no cure.
Am heading to Europe in Mid July for several months of riding wherever I want to go
Then moving from So Florida where there are no hills, cept the bridges over the Intracoastal, to California to do some serious riding.
Plan to do SF to Baja when I move there
Had double bypass a few years ago and went into a gym for therapy and never stopped working out. Do yoga also which is a whole other dimension
Haven't had so much adrenaline flowing in a long long time
When I told my cardiologist what I planned to do he was amazed and after the tests were returned he said he had never seen such a turn around in any other patients
Told me I had taken at least ten years off my age
I plan to spend a few days in Paris,watching the sunsets and drinking fine wine, and never look back
Best advice I ever had was to."do it and never look back".
