You can't be old. You know how to use a computer.
As long as you can fit into your clothes. Biking helps with that.
Road bikes, all rather C&V-ish like me. My rideable list contains a Peugeot, a Raleigh, a Bianchi, and a Peugeot tandem. The under-development list contains a Bertin and a Masi.

Welcome. My bikes are listed below. I like a variety of riding and bikes with long road rides on drop bar road bikes being my top choice. I also like to organize cycling events and cycling advocacy initiatives in my community.
Some here react strongly to being called "old", "old fart", "geezer", "senior" and such. I am not one of those people. I'm a senior old fart and a geezer who lives a more active life than most people half my age. Words don't define me. Call me whatever you like, just be sure to call me when there is a bike ride being planned.

I'm 58, and taught myself to ride on a borrowed Schwinn Pixie. I've been a utility cyclist ever since.

"....prominent social scientist Erik Erikson.......... defines middle adulthood as between 40 and 65."
What's this talk about 'old'? Turning 62 in a couple of weeks and proud to be middle-aged. If I were old, would I have bought a new electric guitar last week? (Answer: Yes)
