Good news a club I can join for free 50 in April this year.

Bit of back pain and find it hard to put my socks on in the morning.

Hi all,

 

There seems to be a lot of 'pipe & slippers' apathy here when it comes to middle age, over 50 is not old - Ive often said 'old age' is a fleeting moment before death.

 

Anyway, recently toured the Medoc region by bike with my O/H and four others, at 56 I was second youngest & oldest 63.

 

In 8 & a half days we cycled 837 Km which is just over 500 miles & have every intention of a similar trip next year.

YUCK - Middle aged cyclists & lyrca, it's not nice! (Doesn't matter how far you go distance wise either)

 

At least wetsuits give more of a man shape - unless you've really lost the plot and go windsurfing or something as equally ghey....... :-)

Guess I'm a proby, 50 in Nov this year. Aches and pains...pah! Backs good, legs good, hands good and head good. Can still see, can still see me toes without a mirror, had a slight medical blip a couple of years ago resulting in bowel removal but that just means I can't crap myself when I get old.
