Great article! I'll be 60 in a month, and still consider riding one of the important things in my life. Riding with 3 of my 4 kids (youngest isn't interested) was and continues to be something that brings us closer together. My wife understands (up to a point) my passion, which I appreciate very much. I really enjoyed the article as well as all of the comments. I've not really been able to ride for almost six months, as I'm recuperating from surgery, but am slowly getting back to where this old interface will cooperate with my 20-year old mindset! Thanks Pinkbike for this article.
