Biking is healthy for seniors. Here's how to make it safer, too
Briefly

Biking can offer substantial benefits for seniors, aiding in their physical activity levels and overall health, especially as cycling becomes more popular among the aging population.
Our study indicated a clear preference among older adults for three-wheeled tricycles and side-by-side bikes, highlighting their desire for safety and comfort while riding.
