Don't run yourself down too much, tommmm.
You can't know how you will improve in the future. Many riders achieve ambitions near the end of long careers.
Ron Brown (yes, the same one as the Hounslow's Ron Brown Memorial 100) started racing before the war (born 1922) when a sub hour 25 was almost unheard of. He achieved this goal as a vet.
Ron was remarkable in many ways, but perhaps his most notable feature was the lack of a right arm.
