Route rider on back roads unless I need to get somewhere in a hurry.
I came back to bikes at age 55 when I retired so I'm not in much of a hurry these days
I'm 78 now and in fairness to my family I have always told them where I'm going and with whom, but also many times alone for 2-3 days.
24 years ago we didn't have the cell phone service we have now so when I'm on the road I check in frequently with my children as I'm a widower now.
My wife was not a rider so I rode alone for many years because all of my friends still had their noses to the grindstone. But as the years passed I gained riding companions as they retired.
All that said, I really enjoy riding alone at my own pace and doing what I want.
