I', 6'6" and weigh 230 and 63 years of age.I started riding 6 years ago because of cancer treatments. The chemo made my connective tissues sore and when I rode it didn't.
I've had 3 types of cancer over the past 12 years and currently I'm dealing with bladder cancer and have 3 more chemo treatments in January. I ride 4 to 5 hours a day, everyday I can.
I started on a mountain bike and got up to 35 miles a day and then switched to hybred and up it to 40-45 but my back would get sore.
This spring I bought a custom Marinoini Fango CX and I put 8,000 miles on it from April thru November.
I just picked up my new 2006 Litespeed Ultimate last week and the ride is so smooth. I want to do a lot of centuries and endurance rides.
Riding for the season just finished and I now have to get on the dern trainer.
