I’m a FOSSIL (a Fine Old Senior Soul In Lycra), not too long in the tooth by today’s standards but gently retired.
Became a born-again cyclist about 9 years ago (1998), though I’ve dabbled over the years.

I want to be a Fine Old Senior Soul in Lycra too – far superior to being a MAMMIL.
Ah well, if I’m not quite there yet something to aspire to.
Great blog – keep up the good work!

BTW. I was messing with my URL and messed up and changed it! My blog writings all moved to the new site, but my followers didn’t. The new one is https://theadventureison.wordpress.com/

I am still down as following your blog, but didn’t seem to get the last one. I’ll try unfollowing & re-following and see if that works. Ah the joys of tech!

LOL I never heard that! I’m a fossil and didn’t know it. However, my grand daughter says I’m not old, she says “you’re just rusty”. 🙂
