Bicycling tips for
boomers and seniors.

Bicycling tips are something that we all can use. Sad but true, most boomers haven't been on a bicycle since grade school. You never forget how to ride a bike but that may be all that you remember.

There is a whole lot more involved than balance and pedaling. The bicycles of 40 or more years ago are dinosaurs now when compared to modern bikes. As a kid we rode mostly around the neighborhood probably on a single speed bike. Now bikes have up to 27 speeds and 100 mile rides, and fun charity, rides are common. Like most things in life, bicycles have evolved considerably. And, while we have more choices and places to ride, we also have challenges that we didn't have then.

Have any great cycling tips that I have forgotten?

I'm sure I have missed some great tips that we all can use. Why not give us the benefit of your experience? It's quick, painless, and a lot of fun.
