I agree with this, but would add the upright Trike option - I enjoy every minute on my upright adult Trike as much as I enjoyed bicycling. Sorry to be so late to the thread! I'm 68.

I don't know why but the idea of a velomobile came to mind reading this thread.
OP, Thanks for putting this thread up. We all make different decisions based upon our own considerations.

Just want to say I'm happy for threads like this in 50+.
It's nice to know that I'm not the only one thinking about this stuff.

Made it to 84 WHOOPIE
In my low 80s, I continue to ride. But, I have made some decisions about where I ride and under what conditions. I stay off the busy trails, and find places that are more isolated. I do not ride on the street, blessed with many other options. I have never broken anything related to the bike. I wish the op the very best in making some difficult decisions. Certainly an indoor bike or stationary bike or trainer or similar make a lot of sense. Best of luck.
