I'm 62 and plan to ride forever. I like Catrin's phrase "aging backwards" because that's how I feel since I started cycling. I agree with Marni about riding into my 90s and -- who knows? -- beyond.
There's lots of good advice on this forum about fitness in general, so I'd encourage everyone to post specific questions or concerns. One important thing I learned here was the importance of core strength in cycling. I had no idea it mattered so much.
ETA: I have never seen any hint of "ageism" in this group. I suppose age is a factor in injury, recovery time, etc. but no one should feel constrained from posting here because of age.
