[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I came to cycling through triathlon which I came to from running. If you are comfortable on a bike, cycling is pretty rad[b]. I do some gravel riding and there are some women in their 60s that join the A group (which is honestly not that crazy). That one is about 30 miles and maybe 2000 feet of elevation over the course of 3 hours usually. [/b]

You can also get a smart trainer and hook your bike up to that and do zwift, trainer road, etc..when the weather is trash. Like this weekend, for example.

I still run a lot, as much as 40-50 mpw but there is a ton of cycling in there. It very much translates for me and I haven’t had a running injury other than tearing up my feet/toenails in a long long time. Cycling can also introduce injuries but those are avoidable with good fit and strength training. A thought for a mix alternative where you see a ton of billy goat like older people on their bikes tearing up the youngins. [/quote]

What group is this? I’m OP and I love gravel rides but don’t like riding solo.

I appreciate the “just keep it to 3 miles” philosophy some offered. I think getting out of the “longer is better” mentality would help me.[/quote]
