Great decision. I am 52 years old and most people don’t believe me. It’s because I’ve always taking good care of myself. I also have a couple bad disk in the back. I started mountain biking about three years ago because of my love for the outdoors. I would have to say I got hooked. No longer does my back bother me and I am in probably the best shape of my life. I was racing outrigger canoes for about ten years and my back could not take it anymore. I do love the feeling the next day after a good long ride. Yesterday I met a guy the is 67 and he looked great he told me he rides twice a week then runs twice a week.. I want to be that guy still out getting after it. I don’t want to be just resting in a rocking chair waiting for death to come get me I would rather go meet the gream reaper on the trail. So you get on living life or just sit around waiting on death it’s your choice I choose living life.
