Residents and campers where I am now staying see me zipping around the park on my bicycle, hauling garbage out and sometimes groceries in. Many times my crazy little dog is riding with me. He loves the wind in his fur.
A nice lady on an adult tricycle stopped me to admire my bicycle and it's cargo carrying capacity. Matter of fact I give the office free entertainment when they see me load up a package received and pedal off on my bicycle.
Anyhow this delightful lady was saying all these nice things about my bicycle. Then she announced "I had to give up my two-wheeler and get this tricycle. I was afraid of falling off and breaking something. My last birthday I turned 96 and I figured it was time to switch. "
Oh my gosh! I hope when I am 96 I am living in my RV with wheels to ride. She did not look 96 so I asked her "Did you just say 96 or 66?" She assured me she was 96, but that there was one other lady in the park older than her, and she didn't ride a bicycle anymore. So she was not the oldest in the park. This clarification was apparently important to her.
Bless her heart!
I guess riding a bicycle can add years and decades to your life! ;D
