I was 26 when I got my first street bike. I'm turning 30 next month. I found myself thinking...I want a bike before I'm 30. As I crunched the #'s, I found I couldn't comfortably pay for one. Then I realized, if I kept thinking..."by the time I'm..." that I'd be thinking "by the time I'm 35" and then "by the time I'm 40"
That's when I decided to bite the bullet once I found one that sang to my heart. I am so glad I did. I don't believe there is an age that is too old to ride, so long as you can physically do it. Most of my group riding before this year was with people many years my senior.
