    BTW, What does MAMIL stand for? Premably the "IL" is "in lycra".

    Ah cracked it - "Male and Mature in Lycra".

        I think the phrase was coined to cover middle age men who suddenly decided they needed to exercise again to stop dropping dead. Wrinkles, crumblies etc aren't seen in the same light.

          More likely to save a marriage or find a new one.
