I met 5 guys in oregon riding from seattle to L A the youngest was 64 the oldest was 75 the 5th guy drove the sag wagon. Every day these guys would start out and ride a full day stop for breaks and lunch. the guy with the sag wagon would wait every 10 or 15 miles at the end of the day they put the bikes on the bike rack and headed to a motel and nice dinner. hot shower and warm bed, these guys were having a blast. In the morning they would go back to where they left off and start again. I d see them every day for 4 or days. The guy in the sag wagon would pass out cold water and fresh fruit to any biker that came along every one on the road knew of them
their story was that 4 years ago they all met each other on a cross country bike trip one that they had to camp in tents most nights. They all loved the ride but hated the camping. They made a plan to meet every year for a ride together but no camping. these guys were an insperation and a pleasure to meet.
I am 50 and hope to stil be touring when im in my 60's and 70's
