I do feel a little self conscious going round Richmond park on my Colnago, albeit a 90's Dream Lux - but I do get satisfaction overtaking equally middle aged looking Cervelo riders.
I have noticed more middle aged cycle converts - i suppose nice bikes are cheaper than nice cars, I always loved watching the tour in my early teens, which led to a Colnago Master, that led to a Mercian, then a Condor, then a CIOCC....
