There are a bunch of us in our 50's, 60's, 70's and some in their 80's who ride 3,000 to 6,000+ miles per year on all sorts of bikes.

By the way, I learned to ride on a single speed. It was in 1943 when I was 4 years old, and that was all we had - single speeds.

I am surprised some of you seem to think that a 50 year old would somehow be especially challenged by a SS or Fixie on ice, and that some sort of special precaution is needed just because one is 50 or older.
