It depends on whom I will be having sex with and what I will be riding.

See, this is what separates the "50+" from nearly every other internet forum or subforum around: Folks our age simply don't waste their time with fantastical hypothetical situations!
I'm with you, NOS88: You'd have to pry both the sex & cycling from my cold, dead hands.

For some reason this reminds me of a local joke:
"Honey, it's basketball, basketball, basketball. I swear you love basketball more than me."
"Yes, but I love you more than football."
"Honey, it's basketball, basketball, basketball. I swear you love basketball more than me."
"Yes, but I love you more than football."

Sorry, neither. Don't see a situation, in my case, where I would have to give up either. Although, temporarily, until my hand fully heals, I've had to give up cycling.

Hey guys, there is no option 3 - neither.
If you have to give one up, which one will it be? Don't cop out.
Don't worry, there are no binding contracts being made by making a choice.

I'm amazed that no one has mentioned the gentleman arrested for sex with a bicycle.

I'd give up cycling to get laid. (Though I'm sure I'd regret it the next morning).

The count so far is:
will give up sex - 4
will give up cycling - 5
Kinda hard to count. Lots of comments where the answer is ambiguous. Lots of cop outs.
Please answer one or the other.

The original question proposed ("If you were asked to give up cycling or sex, which way would you go?") does not preclude other answers. Hence, my original response stands - I would go in the opposite direction of the person asking the question.

Saying "neither" is a cop out is a bit silly. Just as it's silly to say you have to give up one or the other. But, if you want an absolute answer, I would give up cycling. I can walk, swim, lift weights. Sex is more than penetration--involves touching, caressing, kissing, caring. Sex is part of intimacy and if you told me I had to give up intimacy with my wife/partner, that's definitely a no brainer, the answer is a resounding "No, I will not give up intimacy with my wife. We will have been married 29 years this June and she is far more important than a bicycle.
Most options in life contain far more than 2 choices.

I didn't have much of a choice. Radiation or watch the cancer grow until it killed me.

Were do you all think up these topics**********
Well, I am just as bad for replying!!
At 72 years old bicycles have become an addiction and I am enjoying them to the max. However, when the choice comes to sex or my bicycles, my younger wife won't let me give up sex.. No kidding!!
When I come in from work on the bicycle, I get GRABBED, mugged, and the wife rapes me, repeatingly too. I must say, I offer faint resistance. Mainly because after she finishing using me in the bedroom, she drags me downstairs and feeds me a dynamite meal.
I just mentioned this topic to her, and she came up with the idea of putting a bicycle in the bedroom!!! Oh Gawd, what is going to happened to me now!!!!!!
