Driving is often a major concern after a stroke. It’s not unusual for stroke survivors to want to drive. Getting around after a stroke is important — but safety is even more important.

As bicycling grows in popularity, so do the types of bikes offered. Here, we delve into the various bicycles marketed to older adults and highlight which features make them a good choice for each rider.

Cycling is a great endurance exercise called aerobic exercise. It increases your heart rate and improves your breathing. This helps keep you healthy and gives you better staying power so that you can do the things you need to do every day. 

Like younger generations, people age 50 or older are choosing to ride a bike or slip into comfortable footwear for exercise as well as for commuting to work and running errands.

This guide showcases several national and international noteworthy practices presented during each conference track: alternative transportation, infrastructure and vehicles, driver education and training, driver screening and assessment, and housing and land use.

How cycling can be a great — and safe — exercise as you get older.
