I did a lot of cycling in the 70's & 80's... mostly AYH rides (typically class A, B when I was lazy) and a bit of racing. I did numerous century rides including the Columbus Fall Challenge and TOSRV (some years doing TOSRV as two double centuries, back to back). As time went on, I got too busy to ride for fun. My bike because transportation, and then a fixture in our garage. In 2003 my daughter started to enjoy bike rides so I dusted off my 1975 Peugeot PX10 and started to ride again. Restoring a 1970s French bike is harder than I would have expected since many of the parts are no longer made, but it's running again. In 2008 I picked up a used Trek Pilot 5.2 which I LOVE! I found the Pilot 5.x line to be significantly more responsive than my PX10 while giving me a much more comfortable sitting position and good vibration dampening. I don't understand why there aren't more performance bikes with a more upright geometry for those of us who are aging.
