When will you quit ?

[summerdays]

Well rather than quitting my first plan is the electric bike.... and then I will explore other possibilities after that such as a trike (not an upright one), if balance is an issue. But I'm hoping that it is quite some way off and that by continuing to cycle I will help to keep myself more mobile.

Are you only 12 now?

in terms of maturity, yes

 

[Sharky]

The young Sharky on my avatar was taken 50 years ago in my first season when I was 17. Managed about a dozen 10mile TT's this year and there have only been a few years in between when I didn't make the start line. Never very fast, but I hope to do a few more years yet before I hang up my wheels or buy a trike.

When I get carried out the front door in a box..............

Will you still be on the bike?

 

[Sixmile]

When I'm able to afford a car. That's the only reason people cycle, right?

 

[LarryDuff]

I only started when I was 50. Still got a few more years left

 

[DCLane]

Never. When they bury me. Or when I decide to do something different; i.e. I've lost interest.

I thought I would give up cycling at 40 - then 50 ....Im still pedalling at 54 years of age ! - probably enjoying it more than ever....

So when do you plan to call it a day ?

I thought i'd give up smoking at 30, then 40... now i'm looking at 50.

Giving up cycling has never really crossed my mind.

Is quiting an option?

 

[derrick]

When i can't keep up with @Markymark Am only 65 so have a few years to go yet.

So when do you plan to call it a day ?

I have never considered drawing up a list of final dates for any of my hobbies, interests or lifestyle choices.
Inevitably the day will come and I'll adjust .

mileage varies from year to year. If anything I expect my mileage to increase as i enter neo-retirement age and beyond.
A trike that can carry golf clubs may well be on the cards after 65, so we can go down to one car

I'm 65 and still pedalling, I'm slower than I used to be, but I'm still enjoying my cycling. I have no plans to stop, but if I stop enjoying it or become to infirm to pedal then I might then stop.
