So, here is my first contribution.


Some questions:

Please tell us your age.

1. What type of bikes do 50+ folks ride?
2007 Douglas Matrix
2006 Specialized FSR Stumpjumper
2005 CRF450R (Motocross)
2003 KTM450EXC (Enduro)
2006 Beta Rev 3 (Trials)
(I'm a two-wheel addict)


2. Do you take any special supplements/vitamins/minerals as you have grown older?

No.

3. How much do you feel you have "slowed down" if any?

None really, it just hurts more these days.

4. How long have you been biking? New, around a while, biked all your life?

Been road biking for a little under a year. MTB for 3 years. Motorcycles, 20+

5. What type of biking do you do? Long rides, touring, short rec rides.

Mostly lunchtime rides but I've done Buena Vista (50 miles), Pedal the Platte, Blue River Century, Triple Bypass and hopefully will finish the Copper Triangle this weekend.


6. How often do you bike? Your approximate annual mileage?

I bike 3-5 times a week, depending on weather. Don't have a clue yet on annual mileage.


If you haven't already, perhaps you might indicate your age. It helps others to see that folks 50+ do great things.
I turn 51 in December. Don't plan on slowing down anytime soon.

Thanks to everyone in this forum, it's such a breath of fresh air to find other adventurous souls!
