Welcome to the forum, to this thread, and to bicycling itself! I guess you prove the old saw that "you never forget how to ride a bike."
For myself, I'm 71 and have ridden bikes starting from age 5 or so (3 if you count tricycles) except for one 15-year period from age 16 to 30 when I was more interested in driving. But counting motorcycles as at least being on two wheels, there's only a 5-year gap.

Funny that I first saw motorcycles as recapturing the feeling of freedom of riding a bicycle, then 40 years later got more into bicycling to relive my motorcycling memories after I gave them up.
