I really have no idea, but he's 78. He probably doesn't ride too fast if he does.
His other important films you may know:
Alien
Blade Runner
Legend
Thelma & Louise
Gladiator
Black Hawk Down
In other words he's pretty good and pretty prolific. But he does make some turds like that Robin Hood movie with Russel Crowe

This is the first you are hearing of Ridley Scott? Director of "Alien," "Blade Runner" and "Thelma & Louise," just to name a few. Producer of "Gladiator," "Black Hawk Down" and the upcoming Felt (hmmmm), just to name a few.

His first film was a short called a Boy and His Bicycle. His late brother Tony was pretty good too, he did Top Gun, Days of Thunder, True Romance, Crimson Tide amongst others

This is a ridiculous question. The more important question is if he does ride a bike, is it a Ridley or a Scott?

Yes but it was very soft science fiction as opposed to The Martian which is hard science fiction. With soft science fiction you can suspend disbelief a little more. I think they posed some interesting creation questions. Of course if the viewer is extremely religious they won't be able to accept the premises at all

Prometheus didn't make a lick of sense. But at least enough people saw it and were interested by it to have an opinion about it. Robin Hood was a boring rehash and only barely not a bomb.
(There are this many Robin Hood movies)

She tries to overact like Al Pacino but only Al Pacino can overact like Al Pacino and get away with it.
