"A lot of people have this misconception because of age, you're creaking around on walkers," Patrick Bunch told KMBC's Bev Chapman.

Bunch, of Roeland Park, has won two gold medals at a national cycling competition and has set time trial records in Missouri.

"It's because I'm so addicted to it -- I love it," Bunch said.
