I'm 44 and ride about 72 gear inches fixed up and down a few short, steep hills.

I"m wuss and run a front brake, however.

I thought it was a lot of fun. Kinda cheesy with the whole 'no brakes' mantra repeated several times in the movie but over all it was exciting to watch.
During the chase scene through central park (two bikes, and at one point a third bike joins the chase) my friend leans over to me and says "Dude, a chase scene? What are they doing, like 15 miles per hour?" haha
