Welcome! Never too old to ride and to mtb! I'm 55 and have been riding since I was a kid(bmx). Still riding up in the hills and shredding when I can!

Welcome!
I'm sure you know, but taking a class or two for introductions can help a lot. I did that last year and was very happy about it. Never too late for MTBing!
