Martha Stewart has hit back at an Instagram troll for suggesting she was much too old to be riding a bicycle.

The TV star and entrepreneur posted a photo of herself positively glowing as she took an autumn bike ride in the countryside.

However, the joyous photograph of the 77-year-old attracted plenty of critics who offered up their own *expert* advice about elderly bike safety.

"Sorry but you are too old to bike safely," wrote user @seafoodopedia.

Martha hit back at the commenter -- and anyone else who might have thought she had endangered anyone over the age of 50 for her reckless post.

"I feel sorry for you if you think I am too old to bicycle," wrote Stewart. "I keep in excellent shape by doing many outdoor and indoor exercises and activities."

Fans of Stewart have praised her for cycling and dismissed the idea that anyone should stop going for a pedal when they hit a certain age.

"You look fabulous, Martha! Bike ? on and leave the haters in your dust," wrote one Instagram user.

"Martha, I’m close to your age and I love biking! Never too old!" wrote another.
