Thinking of getting into Audaxing a bit late in life

[teethgrinder]

I think the average age for PBP in 2007 was 49.6.

There you are, you're just coming of age!

I must be maturing just nicely. It smells like it at the end of a long ride.

But I've been Audaxing for over 15 years and am still only a whippersnapper at 33.

But 50 isn't too old. Jack Eason didn't start untill he was in his mid 60s. He rode two PBPs, several BMBs and got a 3 continents 1200km SR series and was ACPs Randonneur of the Millenium in 2000. He's slowed down a bit since then. He is a bit old now in his mid 80s.
And as for the cancer, as has been said, it didn't do Lance Armstrong any harm if you look at his 7 TDF victories. We even had a bloke with only one leg* ride an SR series.

Kevin Hickman, who rumour had it, worked in a brewery.



















Making hops.
Sorry, I just had to.

Who can go up hills faster with one leg than I can with two

Jane I can only think it can do you good, if you take it slowly at first.  Yes the Denmead Audaxs are easily accessible from London by train. Hope to see you there for the mince pies and mulled wine in December

Lymington 100k in September otherwise the Gridiron - organised by Wessex CTC - both easy for a first timer.

Less weight, innit.
