Hello Tim, As I've gotten older I've definitely slowed down. I feel as fit as I did 5 to 10 years ago yet I don't feel the need to push it as I once did. I get to work 5 minutes later but smelling better and in one piece. I cringe thinking of the risks I used to take in traffic. I feel fortunate I've never been hit so I show more respect to cycling and commuting now. (Someone in Seattle is currently selling his 61.5cm 1971 Singer touring bike, might be on Craigslist)
