I am an 87 year old who had to quit cycling at age 70 due to knees and hips wearing out. The reason, no doubt, was exacerbated by my running 6-10 miles daily until age 70.

My last bicycle sits in an honored position in my garage so I can look lovingly and longingly at it daily. I bring to mind all the fun and exhilaration that bicycle gave me.

Have you considered an ebike? Riding an ebike is like having a friend push you, and it takes a load off of your legs. I got a Trek Domane+ and am enjoying riding now more than ever.
