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.

If it's your passion, she should recognize that and let you do that.
If she doesn't support you, then it's perhaps not a solid relationship. A person should never stand in the way of someone else's dreams.
You could always do a trade... you ride bulls, she can do another hobby.
But be careful, you should really find out what her issue is with it first... and address it.

I'm trying to make my way to TV. Right now you'd have to swing by the North-East at an event.
Share Answer: 
14 is a little young for Bull Riding, but a lot of rodeos have junior bull riding or junior steer riding which is good for you to get your start in competition.
I would recommend a Bull Riding School this spring or summer, they also usually have steers to start you off on, to get you into the sport with the proper fundamentals.
Good luck!

For sure there was... and there were guys in their 50's.
There are even Bull Riders in the 70's still riding in the Senior Pro Rodeo Association, and one guy in Australia who rides with the best of them.
As long as you're in decent enough shape and your body can take the rigours of the sport, you're game.

Cowboy Cut. Never walk around with your jeans not tucked in (when not riding).
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.
