Just turned 66 in April and hope to be riding when I'm 86. Diminished capacity to operate a bike safely would be the only reason to stop. None of us know what tomorrow may hold. Last January a very close friend, not a rider but physically active and in seemingly excellent health, got pneumonia and passed away within days after being hospitalized. I like to live each day to it's fullest, thanking God for each day I'm allowed. Besides, riding makes me feel younger and happier.
