Im doing my annual twice my age ride tomorrow - its to raise money for a crippled little girl - when im going through a rough patch - she is my insperation - ( sorry about the spelling ) - but does it really mater
I note you didn't say anything about not contemplating 8 pints of Guinness...Congratulations! I'm less than half of 72 and wouldn't contemplate a ride like that.
Its funny you should say that - after the ride ( which was a mental battle as well as a physical one ) I thought the same - yesterday i was trying to stick to a pre planned schedule - this was a mental drain on my resorces because people were waiting for me to finish - so maybe if i took my time in future twice my age rides - or cycled 200 miles in 2 days - or drink more Guinness during the rideWell done. When I grow up I want to be able to do that.
At what point do you think you'll have to admit defeat and switch to a one and a half times your age ride?
