I loved football, too, but got the bicycle bug in 1971 and inadvertently saved my body from a harsh reality in the future. My knees are still pretty good. Back is trashed from doing stupid stuff, but cycling helps keep it in check.
Raced for many, many years, and one day it dawned on me that racing is really kind of dumb if you are not at the top of the heap, so I stopped that foolishness and found I had a lot more money in my pockets!
I have ridden all over the USA and Asia. Europe is for retirement, if I make it that long and don't get taken out by some ahole in a motor vehicle.
