I'm old.
I mainly ride a Bridgestone 300 single-speed, but I have an Italian racing frame, a Vianelli Super, also s-s, but it is slightly short in the TT, so it hangs most of the time.

They both have custom-made seat leather by RHM on Brooks frames, great for big butts like mine.

I have an old Bridgestone from the 90's and a Cannondale I picked up last year with great intentions which I have not met as of yet. After a CABGx3 surgery two years ago I have whipped myself back into shape. I thought bike ridding would be part of the routine but this old body is not adapting well to the seat on long rides. I will give it another go latter this spring and see what develops. If it does not work out, I will stick to hiking, stair climbing and visits to the gym.
 
See https://rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=61905&page=50 for a few bikes that RFF participants own/ride/enjoy.

I ride a custom-built fat bike tailored for the street; current one is based on the Salsa Beargrease frame set. I ride every day, weather permitting—which is most days unless the roads are actually wet in my area—typically about 15-25 miles per day.


I can rattle on about the specs and equipment for an hour if I knew it wouldn't bore most of you to tears. ;)
