Speaking of old dudes, two of the guys on our TTT training session this morning are 55+ athletes. And they're still able to tick away 29 MPH laps with 35+ whipper-snappers like myself.
This year we will feature two four-man teams at SCNCA champs, one in 170+ combined age (my division), and one team at whatever the next level of boomer age is (I think 190+). Mean age of our rides is in mid to low 40's and they're still hitting hard.
