It’s a bit misleading of a story. They’re not systematically buying up rare books, they’re systematically buying up all books. Rare is just small subset. I agree it’s politically tone deaf all the same.

There’s a physician turned influencer (though he still has a practice) who’s focus is ‘healthspan’ as opposed to lifespan. He talks about ‘being able to do the things you want to do in your marginal decade of life’. Strength training and balance are a big part of his regimen. One example he often uses is ‘you still want to be able to put your bag in the overhead compartment by yourself when you’re 80’.

He also talks about how we lose what he calls ‘explosive power’ which leads to falls. A young person can lose their balance too, but they’re far more likely to move their leg quickly forward (or wherever) to break the fall. He works on that as well as balance and strength.

I ride almost exclusively on rail to trails.

Looking at this score, it just looks daunting to me… we’ll see.

It fits under the hands pretty well. Based on other things I’ve heard you play this is totally in your reach.

Ugg. They do save you.

I had one fall this year too (so far - knock wood) also on a dismount.
