AGE, not MPH

My 2002 Specialized Rockhopper Comp

Bicycling Over Fifty is about being "Fifty" being YEARS Of AGE, or older, not MPH as in going faster than "Fifty".
Those who just wish to get outside and enjoy life on two wheels, we're here for you.
After my wife and I met, some three states, two children, five houses, and seven jobs ago, we began our relationship by riding our bicycles together. We felt we couldn't give back to the world any better than writing about our rides, how healthy bicycling has been for us and all the cool places to ride to, wherever we happen to be.
We now live in central Florida, which means we can bicycle all winter. Summer is so very hot here, we don't bicycle much locally then.  We'll get out on "cooler" days when we can, or we will travel north to cooler temperatures.
We live close to a multi-use/bicycle trail, the Cross Seminole, which crosses our county and carries the Florida National Scenic Hiking Trail along its route.  The Cross Seminole Trail links to the Seminole-Wekiva Rail Trail via a pedestrian suspension bridge over Interstate 4, creating multiple bicycle rides over twenty miles long from home, without having to ride in traffic or pedal up long hills.  Both trails are planned to be extended over the next few years which will be exciting for us.  By adding a few, low car-speed road miles, bicycling from home can be any distance or style we want.  Going further, by adding some state highway miles, you can ride most anywhere in Florida.
So, welcome to our blog.
