I wish !! reached 70 a few days ago and tbh the 14 is too heavy for my arthritic legs so I reckon last year of riding - unless I get something lighter
The older I get the better I was
The problem with retirement is that you cant take a day off

Lots of light bikes out there that could be fun to ride.

Plenty of three wheeled options these days for guys with bad knees. Even hydraulic stabilisers that extend/retract at low speeds. If you WANT to ride you'll find a way 😎

Best allrounder I've ever owned 👍

as a side note, this morning on the rocket forum there are plenty of guys 79 & 81 still riding rockets!  I feel like a bloody youngster.
😎  Always looking for the next corner.  😎

In the Perth BMW club im a member of, we have Ted, he's 91 and still comes on each Sunday AM ride with us.  Bit wobbly on start up, but once he gets going, hard to keep up with him.  He's so sprightly, always has a laugh or joke ready. Top bloke.
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

The trick is speed = stability :)
