Cycling Without Age

Here is a TED talk inspired by an email from Malcolm (our friend in the Montreal Bike Club) It is called Cycling Without Age. As I listened to this TED talk, it reminded me why many of us so-called elderly do not wish to give up cycling -- it's smelling the flowers, hearing the birds, feeling the wind in your hair.

I do not plan to buy an electric rickshaw, but I have ordered the thing powering the vehicle – an eBike. As the speaker said, when people reach their seventies, most of them give up cycling because of physical limitations or fear of being hurt. 

But for many of us, I suspect the eBike is just the perfect alternative to extend this experience another decade.
