I started a year ago. I’m 48 now and in the best shape in years. I did BMX in the late 70’s/early80’s. Rode dirt bikes(250) late 80’s/early 90’s, then tended to my kids. Now they’re grown and they’re proud and happy to see me enjoy myself so much in two wheels. I’ve even join a few 6hrs races for fun. Did not win, but I wasnt last, and that included younger guns. I’m a faster and smarter rider now and still having a blast while learning more and visiting new trails and meeting new ppl who share my ever growing MTB passion. For the joy of the trail!!!
