Is This The 50+ Motto?
A nice find while shopping. It’s becoming more appropriate for me every day.https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...c04df1201.jpeg

Take a break... You've had enough challenges for the year. :twitchy:
But I'm sort of thinking of nice things ... like a 100 km ride in the countryside. :) |
I think that's the Life motto.
|
Nice sentiment,
but I immediately think how short the journey would be with no chainstays... |
Actually we already have a 50+ motto. It's "Dulcius ex aspires". (Sweeter after difficulties). I know that because it's printed on the back of my 50+ jersey.

The motto works for me. In a "driven" sort of way.
|
|
Per ardua ad victoriam. (Through difficulties to victory. I wrote that in sharpie on one of my water bottles.) |
From Shakelford: Fortitudine Vincimus (by endurance, we conquer)
|
It is also the motto of the younger crowd that has their act together.
|
"Find joy in the journey." I like it...that seems to be my general philosophy in life these days.
However, my folks sent me this a couple of years ago...(what are they trying to tell me?) https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...6cecd3424a.jpg |

My friends and I were young and foolish. They're deceased now, I'm still foolish.

Motto or no motto, I always feel better after a ride. That said, for me a ride isn't a great ride unless I've stopped to take a photo.

Mine https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...8c7e4d8ba.jpeg edit: …..but in a 65+, 'safety first', 'no downhill bombing' kinda way - lately. So, maybe, Self-Induced Speed Thrills. |
