You know you're getting old when ...

[fatboyonabike]

, I see my future is full of rocking chairs, shotguns and sitting on the porch...

you will fit in out at Cessnock,

50:01 edits shit me....... I must be old not being down with blowing out trails and trying to dress like you are homeless on a big $ bike is a thing.

 

[moorey]

When you bend over to pick up a spoon, rupture a disc, and can't even any more....

 

[Paulie_AU]

Punch out a morning of shuttles...... So sore next day.

Trimmed my beard this morning. Noticed more grey & white hairs in the sink than last time

 

[mike14]

When you have to take the day off work to recover from a stack, rather than just walk it off and show everyone your injuries...

Basketball grand final tonight, and instead of feeling excited and fired up, I feel like I should be working back late at the office instead. Get off my lawn, the lot of you.

About 50% of the left side of my face has mysteriously disappeared. It's like there was a bushfire there. Now best I can muster is the upper lip handlebars but the bottom is toast because it looks like I started shaving then stopped.

You become a roadie for fitness and to increase your saddle time ... FFS
Have to admit I’m enjoying my new rig ... 4 rides, 1 near miss, 1 cock smoker on the horn ... and I ride mainly cycle paths and back streets. <3 Sydney

Peaked helmet, MTB shoes and pedals, baggy shorts, airy legs says I’m a long way from being a roadie.

I hate to admit that I don't mind a road ride. I went on the M7 today and ended up doing 64kms.

I'm keeping away from Sydney drivers and stick to M7. I've seen how those guys drive and I'm keeping away.

 

[Ultra Lord]

Yeah Mrs Ultra mainly hits M7 and the track st sutherland. Occasionally the road out to kurnell.
Much better than sitting in main roads.

If it makes you feel better, I have more grey hairs than brown these days. I’m fighting a loosing battle

Have to get you on one of those skinny tyres things one day. I like a road ride but love an MTB ride more

HaHa! Exactly what an old person justifying riding a roadie would say.....
I'm old enough that I don't give a fuck anymore and just ride it.

If it makes you feel any better I don't care what colour they want to be, just as long as they are there, which they aren't

They just move from your head, to your ears, nose, shoulders and everywhere you don't want them.

...the minor inconvenience of a splinter turns into a major drama when you can only find the +1s around the house and not the +2s

 

[moorey]

(Maybe more about being a shiny arse desk jockey mostly)
...when a couple of days of physical hard labour leaves your hands and arms so weak you had to pike on your morning ride coz you couldn’t hold the bars....and McKayos is 2 days away.

(@sane, what are +1’s and +2’s?)

 

[Ultra Lord]

Im guessing glasses

Aaaaaah....those things I’m meant to wear but never do....and grumble all day that I can’t see for shit.
