Organised rides for Over 60s

Thanks screenman. I'll have to do a bit of searching on google. If over 60 is young in cycling terms what would you consider to be Old in cycling terms?

Thanks for that. I checked out the Sky Ride and there is a beginners ride starting tomorrow at 10.30 which does the Guild Wheel and takes about 3hrs 30 mins. That would have been ideal apart from the fact that it states....No Helmet, No Ride. I have a helmet on order from Argos but it hasn't arrived yet so I'm a bit disappointed. Now that I know about Sky Ride I wil keep an eye out for the next ride.

Tell them you're a sheikh , and wear a tea towel? There is no offence meant to be implied to any religion by this post, it is said with tongue firmly in cheek

Actually, turban-wearing Sikhs are exempt from most helmet rules - even the evil laws in NZ. Any group with a blunt "no helmet no ride" and no exceptions is probably discriminating illegally.
