What is your goal? If your goal is to ride 10K miles a year or ride across the US all you need to do is ride a lot. If your goal is to stay with cyclists half your age then you need to do specific training.

I have been riding for awhile. Except for the few years I was interested in racing.I have always mixed the cycling with other activities like rowing, hiking and cross country skiing. That has helped develop the upper body muscles while still keeping the muscles associated with cycling in tone and limber.
