Agree heartily, 75 and retired for 16 years I still volunteer and get in near your milage but have also made changes. Osteoarthritis driven changes have worked well for me. Shorter top tube get weight off my hands and my back likes it as well, triple cranks keep my pedalling speeds up which helps develops synovial fluid which acts as a lubricant for what little cartilage I have left in my knees.
