I know if your a car driver you have to retake your test when you come to 70 - 75 (i think),what about us riders?do we have to retake both mod 1 and mod 2?
Asked Tef and he's unsure.....(something else he dont know) 
Edited..... or is it you just have to renew your licence with doctors notes?

Interesting question. Here it doesn't even mention a doctors note, apart from C1 licences, which are lorries. By the looks of it, it is literally just a "Hi, I'm 70, renew it please"..
Perhaps the DVLA reason if you're able to fill the form in you're able to drive. 
That would explain why so many 70+ drivers are so bad at driving. Many are still perfectly good drivers, I might add.
Anyway, to answer the first part of your question, at the moment, there is no extra test to take at 70, so you just renew it as you would car licence.

There is no retest requirement regardless of age.
Once you attain the age of 70, the licence has to be renewed and is valid for 3 years at a time.
There is no requirement for a medical certificate, it is a self declaration, and 99% all state that they are still fit to drive
