I live my life 8-seconds at a time as an adrenaline junkie that goes event to event, matching up against some of the rankest bulls in the world in an 8-second battle for supremacy.
You're definitely not too old. The best thing to do is to find a Rodeo School or Clinic in your area, try googling "Rodeo Clinic" or "Rodeo School" with your State or Province. Clinics are the best way to get started by learning all of the intricacies and easing your way into the sport.
Share Answer: 
They all start around $200-$250. Just like a vest, I wouldn't suggest skimping out on tuition.
What state/province are you in, maybe I can point you to something in the right direction?
You could also try googling local schools/clinics or host associations in your area for more information.

I would probably guess calves about 400 pounds, or steers about 500 pounds to start off.

My pleasure, I love to talk about our Sport.
Most Bull riding vests weigh approximately 2-4 pounds.

Have you ever seen any 'senior abuse' in your nursing home?
This would be hard to track. In today's age, there are many that are retiring on the top, as they've seen guys ride beyond their limits, and it's just a slippery slope.
There are about 2-3 that retire a year from the upper ranks of the PBR.
Off the top of my head... Adriano Moraes, Justin McBride, Ross Coleman in the past 4, while Brennan Clark and Luke Snyder are saying this next season will be their last. These guys have all hit the million-dollar mark in earnings and can kind of "afford" to retire. Many guys will just finish their years out in the lower ranks riding at the odd event, etc.
And there are lots of those that are injured out and with family on the way, etc., hang up their chaps. Rare at the PBR level... but everyone has a limit... even superman.
Thank you Mark for your great questions. I can only answer so far, but I would recommend you contact the PBR Media Relations Department and the Justin Sports Medicine Team for more detailed information if necessary.
