Hey,
First time poster here. I'll be 49 in a couple of months and just did my first Cat 5 road race last Saturday. I placed 33rd out of 41 but I finished about how I expected with all that climbing (see signature) - 4250' in 40 miles. I had a blast and can't wait until the next race.
I used to be a BMXer but I quit that about ten years ago and got real fat. I got a road bike four years ago and lost a lot of weight and started going fast and got hooked. I'm three pounds away from reaching my goal of getting into the 160s - down from 203 at the New Year.
Here's me crossing the finish line last Saturday. I did an awesome Eddy Merckx impersonation but my wife missed it.
