Once you get used to bicycling again, try to increase the time spent biking to at least 30 minutes 3-4 times a week, slowly increasing your time until you are bicycling 45-60 minutes at a time. This will increase your fitness level tremendously. Be sure to ride slow for about 5 minutes for a warm-up, slowly increasing your speed. Remember to do a cool down at the end of the ride again by slowing decreasing your speed. You need to give your heart and circulatory system time to adjust to the change in activity. And do not forget to wear a helmet!
