It may be a little late to be a pro, but it's never too late to start riding and racing. I started when I was 39.

I've raced a few times, got it out of my system, now just playing is good enough for me.

I started young, dropped out for a while and jumped back in. One thing didn't change, crashing still sucks.

Crashing sucks yes, but breaking bones, whether you crash or not, sucks way more. (I wish I had video of the incedent..)
