Bicycling is no longer the preserve of the young. It is now a larger participation sport than golf in Australia, and the biggest increase is in the males over 45 demographic.

This also corresponds with a significant increase in injuries from bicycle accidents in the same age group! My friend just shattered his shoulder on Good Friday and is now the proud bearer of a titanium plate holsing the shoulder joint together.

Anyway, all that aside, here are a group of the not-so-young racing here in Brisbane. (Doesn't stop them from busting a gut!)

Nice stuff Trevor, probably would have liked a bit more headroom on the lead rider. You surprised me with those statistics

Its a very good shot from the exposure and movement perspective but too tight in the composition.

And fair enough, too! Here is all the room I have? Is it any better?
