Probably true, but the best stereotype is the guy who has delusions of 
seriousness, but is still carrying around 10-20 lbs extra and can't rip
your 
legs off. Personally, I have no problem with older racers who ride fast
and 
are serious, although I doubt they have as much fun as somebody who keeps
it 
all in better perspective, no matter at what level they race.

As a representative of that SoCal Masters contingent, I took offense at
this 
remark at first, but then I realized it doesn't apply to me because my
race 
re****ts are at least the level of a 16-year-old. But I will have to defend

the unnamed and undisputed king of 12-year-old race re****ts by pointing
out 
that he has done more for bike racing in recent years than most of us ever

will in a lifetime. His recent efforts include promoting and sponsoring 
successful downtown crits in new venues, providing financial sup****t to 
up-and-coming racers, and pu****ng hard for development of multi-use 
recreational facilities (inc. cycling).
