Yes we may be getting older and slower, but we can serve as an inspiration for those younger. When I was in my 20s on a backpacking trip I saw an older couple — probably around 50 — backpacking. I was inspired and said I hope to be like them when I reach that age. The image has stayed with me over the years and now that I am in my 50s I am still inspired by those active folks older than me.

I guess I should clarify. I wasn’t doing centuries or cycling that much in my younger days. My goal is a century in every decade since I started bicycling regularly. I may have been in my forties or close to it when I did my first century.

I like your goal of riding a century in every decade of your life. I am going to steal it and have the same goal. I rode my first century when I was 12 so I missed the first decade, but have done a century every decade since (meaning my 20s). Did you ride a century before you were 10?

Great stories, I might find those and give them to people I work with.
