I was just wondering since no one in my area rides, how old is everyone who rides because that would be cool if adults did it ive only seen teens at the places i go.

15, going on 16 this summer.
Strange that all you see are kids riding, everyone around here that rides is an adult. And by adult, I mean over 18.

My boss, who's a few years older than me, is a pretty good mountain biker too, but he's been riding for longer than I have so that's no big surprise.

yeah when my brother got his license (the same one who has the fsr im riding right now) hasent ridden it forever. its a shame because that bike did a cost a lot of money. Now hes an all out car person. When i get my license ill probably ride my bike more than my car.
P.S. When im driving my car, ill probably be driving to go mountain bike haha
its great to know all the adults ride!
