I’m 49. Started bicycle trials a year ago as cross training for moto trials (started a couple of years ago). I ride bicycle 6 days a week for an hour with few breaks — the moto once a week for 3-4 hours. I’m having no real age related physical issue — in fact I feel like I’m in the best shape of my life — riding daily and a whole food no sugar diet (beer though) I dropped 25lbs. My biggest “issue” is more a mental “fear” issue of just “sending it” — things like big drops and big jumps and going over the bars scare the crap out of me and that is fairly new feeling... HR is usually around 130-170...
