Still do at 39. The wintertime sets things in a halt over here, but in about a month or so it's outdoor season again! Riding flatland on my trusty Street Beat ..as always. Newest addition to the hobby on wheels is vintage road bikes. They are a great way to balance out the sometimes very tiring flatland practice routines.

I guess I need to check email notification. I just popped back over to see all the replies today. WOW looks like there are few of us out there still holding it down one way or another. I have been trying to get some daily riding in and its been going okay. I have been good to get a good 45min to a hour. I will take today off but I will be riding on Thursday. I will try and film myself. I am not doing anything spectacular but I am still having fun riding around on one wheel.

Just started back at 42 and do a weekly session at the local skatepark. Have not been on a bike in 5 years after destroying my knee on a small fall during a trials demo. Got the itch to ride again recently and never looked back. I do favor my bad knee a bit but don't let it hold me back on having fun. Besides, it's great exercise and sure beats the hell out of jogging...

i still ride at 42 and try to learn some new tricks like rolling decades, rolling over taker and tricks Perry Mervar and DMC used to perform BITD. Also got a road bike to work my breath and my endurance and a 24" to go to work.

Good thread! Like so many others here, I'm early 40's with a fam and a small business so my free time gets pretty limited. I get out the mountain bike with a trailer for the little ones to cruise around the neighborhood and a 2002 HB ep for a little os flatland. Little being the important word there. Every summer I make goals of re-learning certain tricks. Then it seems like next summer I make the SAME goals! Ha-----

I'm 40 and throw down nearly every damn day. Park, trails, street and the occasional flatland. Sciatic pain in my back is slowing me down a bit but I'll have surgery eventually.
