I’m in week 4 of my return to cycling after a 3-year absence (age 61). Doing about 15 hours/200 miles per week, with one rest day. Mostly tempo pace riding. No easy days. Starting to add in more vertical. So far, so good, though I must say the fitness ramp is taking longer than in earlier years to go up and to the right.
Some might say this is too much training, but it seems to work for me.
