Author: Doug CHAN (Cycling group leader)

Most seniors like us turn to low-impact exercises and cycling is one to stay healthy in old age. We don’t have to be a great athlete to enjoy a ride.

Benefits (just to name a few):-

• Indoor stationery or outdoor cycling improves balance and leg strength.
• Give us more strength and stamina over time.
• A great way to improve our mental health, is ideal for seniors who suffer from memory loss…
• Is FUN and great supports for socializing when done in Groups ~ a great way to meet new friends.

EO – Douglas Chan (joined since 2005), our cycling enthusiast will guide you along your every trip, be it SG or JB.
