There was couple who was in their 80's that used to ride their bikes
back and forth to the store (8 mile round trip) every few days. A
doctor told me that they gave up their car when it was too dangerous
for them to properly drive it. Eventually the wife passed away and I
think the husband has now passed away but they've given me plenty of
reason to expect that I will ride for as long as I can.

There are a few riders who have completed ultra-cycling events like
Boston-Montreal-Boston or other 1200K brevets at age 75, maybe older, I don't
know.
