I currently ride a 2018 Triumph Bonneville T120. Im thinking of downsizing to a Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 when they finally come stateside. Not on meds, but really think a lighter bike would be easier to handle.

@therev1959 Hubby left this morning riding his 2001 Goldwing 1800 [has 200K+ miles on it!] pulling his tent trailer. I do know he takes more frequent breaks nowadays when riding long distances. The idea of a lighter bike is a good one, and knowing our limitations and how our reactions change as we grow "more golden" is knowing ourselves. This goes for anything, I believe.

Reading what others have mentioned about gardening, downsizing to raised beds or container gardens, has helped remind me I can go in that direction! My raised beds went fallow for several years, and last week I scattered wildflower seeds in them to see if I can manage that this year. Maybe next year it will be some veggies.

An activity that stays foremost in my mind is hoping to get out there and walk. It engages all the senses.
