There are so many variables to consider when talking about 'recommended' heart rates, the only conclusive way to get that number is to submit to a series of strenuous tests to determine what yours may be.

I'm 66 and can ride pretty much all day long at 160~170bpm, well above my 'recommended' heart rate. As you've found out, biking improves your body and apparently biking has brought yours up to where it should be.

Dave, thanks for the feedback. Cycling has made dramatic improvements in my health even in the past couple of months.
