Default Learning To Ride at Age 50

I have been learning since the age of 53 ... I am 58 now and still
learning.
very slow learner but no despair: the joys of unicycling pay for the
many, many falls and missed tries. keep going.
my practice of choice: Muni ! ah the joys of Muniing in the woods ....
time freezes and I am not ageing any more
I am not a man of "challenge" but nonetheless I think I should do
something for my 60th birthday next year .... something enjoyable (not
a 600km ride!) .... any suggestion?


I was planning on a 60km ride on my 60th but didn't train for it. I
felt guilty that day so I just did a short ride around the
neighborhood. 60km should be doable if you've trained for it and the
terrain isn't too hilly.

My wife and I signed up to do a century ride on bikes in September.
They do have a 37 mile option. Maybe next year I should do it on a uni.
I'd do it this year but I promised I'd ride with her.
