Bicycles-recommendations?
Thinking of getting new bicycles. We are older now & certainly don't need a gagillion speeds. Any recommendations would be appreciated. THX

As an older rider what is needed is the so called "comfort bike" these are the ones with Flat foot Technology such as the Electra.
They come with one speed or 3,7,and 21 speeds.
She decided that the Townie 7 Speed Vanilla was just right for crusin the camp grounds and the bike trails near the beach, it put the fun back in riding.
They offer outstanding comfort and control with the feet forward technology, you can plant your feet on the ground while still sitting on the seat,a real plus when older and a little less agile.
We tried the cheap ones and they do not compare with the comfort,control and safety of the Electra.
Granted they are not cheap but at this age it is worth it not to have to worry so much about falling and ruining an outing or our self.
