I don't think I will ever be able to ride my Torelli or Club Fugi ever again. Just rode 14 miles on my Park Pre Hammer hard tail with slicks. Had to stop every mile, rest, drink water. Took two full bottles and drank them both. Went about 10 mph. I can't take another fall, ever. Shorts and tennis shoes. Started walking two weeks ago to try to get into some kind of shape. Rode a few 1 mile loops last week after walking. Felt good. Will see how much or far I can go.
