Yep, I think it's a comfortable ride-- I have not hit 56! Sounds like a white-knuckler...

Thanks newleaf- I am returning to cycling again after a long break. I recently started mountain biking and that got me back into cycling in general, so then I dusted off the old Trek (which I bought new in '90) and tuned it up and I'm having a blast riding it. I've got a Garmin Edge and that has really increased my enjoyment by measuring / comparing / etc. That and the group of like-minded middle-aged guys that I ride with. Still trying to get my gear updated and get some decent riding clothes for the winter. I'm in Alabama where we don't get snow, but it can still get cold! Thankful to be able to ride outdoors pretty much year-round.
