Listed last year but this year I've gained a year, now 51 but due to the rainy
season last summer didn't get to spin much if any,
hope to change that
this summer, much dryer so far. Same bike but would like to start saving up
for something a little nicer, although I do like the ride of this older frame

Please tell us your age. 50 years young as of Jan 31 this year, 2004
1. What type of bikes do 50+ folks ride?
I ride a 1976 Schwinn Super Le Tour 12.2
2. Do you take any special supplements/vitamins/minerals as you have grown older?
No, but am considering doing so.
3. How much do you feel you have "slowed down" if any?
gained some weight, so yes, slowed down a little but am determined to rectify that asap!
4. How long have you been biking? New, around a while, biked all your life?
1976, same bike all these years, not a long distance rider though.
5. What type of biking do you do? Long rides, touring, short rec rides, commute, tour, race?
I ride during my lunch hour to do my errands, which means pressing the time to get back inside an hour, need to start taking some trips on the weekends too.
6. How often do you bike? Your approximate annual mileage?
This year it has dropped off, MUCH rain held me back, last year I was doing 80 miles
a week, seems low compared to everyone else no doubt.
7. Do you do any other type of physical activities - weight lifting, skiing, running, etc.?
Weight lifting, free weights, dumb bells
Perhaps you might indicate your age on your reply?? still 50, this didn't take that long to type
