This and the yolo/fomo piece have really hit home for me. They are not unrelated either -- the obligations of middle age life make for less frequent riding; the deteriorating middle age body means that each ride after a break of a week or two or three feels like I'm starting over from scratch. Part of me loves the misery though, otherwise why would I be doing this sport?
Anyway, so happy to have you writing here Mike.
