Cool what a Guy

Most people would be happy just to be alive at that age

He puts a lot of effort in to what he enjoys and sticks at it

it i a classic case of use it or lose it! he has used and hasn't lot it. chance are that if he had retired earlier and had a less active lifestyle then he may not be in the current health he is in now. that an a very humble perspective on life have made the man how he still is today.

 

great story.

You don't stop doing things because you get old, you get old BECAUSE you stop doing things!!

 

When I had the bike shop, we had old guys who rode their bikes every where, they would could come in each year and get a rear sprocket one tooth bigger for their Sturmey Archer three speed (to lower the gears) they would catch a cold, be off their bikes for a week and die:sad:

 

The cycling was keeping them alive, IMHO.
