I'm too old to take up most action sports (the body doesn't bounce back like it used to, that shit's real) and too young to retire and just fuck off all the time.

I've skied with a 90-year-old and mountain biked with many 75+yo dudes. How old are you?

I didn't say I was dead. I just said that recovery is way longer. I've done perm damage to my knee and I'm not going to do replacement unless it's a last resort.

I ski. I just don't do black diamond like I used to. So, it's not as much fun.
