The numbers $59$ and $61$ are a pair of twin primes ("in prime shape. I have twin like older brother").
$$frac159 = 0.0169491525423728813559322033898305084745762711864406779661016949...$$
This reciprocal ("reciprocal of my age") has a repeating section of $58$ digits ("tad shorter than our ages"), which apart from the leading zero starts with $16$ and ends with $61$. A number $p$ whose reciprocal has a period of $p-1$ is necessarily prime, and called a full reptend prime. The repeated sequence of digits of length $p-1$ is a cyclic number ("bike rider"). There are 9 full reptend primes ("family of 9") under $100$ ("none of us have hit the century mark yet"), namely $7$, $17$, $19$, $23$, $29$, $47$, $59$, $61$, and $97$.
So the answer is
$169491525423728813559322033898305084745762711864406779661$
I am not sure I have found the intended "key" and generating method, but one possible method is the following.
Presumably it has to depend on the fact that the sequence of digits is a cyclic number. This means that if you multiply it by any number between $1$ and $p-1$ you get the same digits, except cyclically rotated. It happens that multiplying by 9 gives you the same sequence starting 5 digits further on. So what you could do is memorise a key of the first five digits, and calculate the rest. Multiplying by 9 is easily done by multiplying by 10 and subtracting once.
The method is then as follows:
Write the key $16949$ twice, the bottom one shifted one digit to the right.16949
16949
------ -
1525...
You subtract from left to right, and then append the digits you found to continue the subtraction:169491525
169491525
---------- -
152542372...
Doing the subtraction left to right is a bit unusual but not too hard, as you only need to look ahead one or two digits to check for carries. With a little practice you could write down the answer directly, just once instead of three times like I do here.
Another useful property is that the second half of a cyclic number is the nines complement of the first half (i.e. the two halves add to $999...9$), so once you reach the $983$ you can just recite the complement digits.
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
Answer should include the digital code and the method you employed to generate the whole sequence..that is the key part. I can recall all the digits anywhere even without a calculator.

Edit:
Quick explanation, mostly covered by Jaap Scherphuis' answer already:
The family of 9 are referring to the full reptend primes under 100, namely $7, 17, 19, 23, 29, 47, 59, 61, 97$, of which the "brothers" are $59$ and $61$, and the "father" is $97$.
The sequence 16xxxx61 is tied to the reciprocal of $1/59$, which has a 58 digit repeating decimal sequence:
$0169491525423728813559322033898305084745762711864406779661$
My construction method:
I found a construction method that doesn't require starting with any particular (long) number. It uses a division trick called Leapfrog division to compute the value of $1/59$:
Start with $1$ ("the digital code"). At each step we will divide the current number by $6$ to get a quotient and a remainder. In step one we have:
$1 / 6$ = $0,1$ (where the 1st value is the quotient, and the 2nd value is the remainder)
Now take the remainder, $1$ and append the quotient $0$ to get the next number to divide: $10$:
$10 / 6$ = $1,4$
$41 / 6$ = $6,5$
$56 / 6$ = $9,2$
$29 / 6$ = $4,5$
$54 / 6$ = $9,0$
$09 / 6$ = $1,3$
$31 / 6$ = $5,1$
$15 / 6$ = $2,3$
$32 / 6$ = $5,2$
$25 / 6$ = $4,1$
etc.
The quotient values form the decimal expansion of $1/59$:
$0.01694915254...$ which is the sequence we are looking for minus the leading zero.
The reason this works is because we are trying to compute $1/59$, and since $59$ ends in a $9$, we can use leapfrog division using $6$ as the divisor instead of $59$.
(Old answer removed, apparently it was confusing the issue)
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
@jsi. Although this is nice simplification of Japp’s original suggestion, what I am looking for is the numerical code which used repeatedly to generate the rest of the sequence. Current solution involves generating the first five digits presumably by straightforward division and then applying the algorithm.

@Uvc Still not sure what you want, but I came up with a construction method where the starting numeric code is "1".

May 12 at 11:02
$begingroup$
@jsi As I stated, you have to find the code number which used repeatedly generates the next number in the sequence in a very simple way. Beauty of Reptand primes is for some of them , sequence can be written immediately without ever seeing the sequence before..follow me for further clues.

May 12 at 11:08
$begingroup$
@Uvc You must be looking for some specific method. The leapfrog division method in my latest edit is so simple I can do it in my head, but I take it that the one you have in mind is just as simple or even more so.
$endgroup$
– JS1
May 12 at 16:35
$begingroup$
@jsl yes..also your method needs the first 5 digits be computed first and apply leapfrog technique..mine involves only knowing the reptand number, initial digit is given by the rule for all reptand s..then simple operation to be performed for determining digits using the simple numeric code...all the 29 digits can be derived...in conjunction with 9 compliment rule..rest of the digits can be written right. Away..my method involves no initial computation of the seed number and much faster.

Jaap Scherpuis found the answer, but the OP wants more explanation and a simple construction...
I am middle aged bike rider still in prime shape.
We're looking for a prime number $p$, somewhere around the 40s or 50s maybe.
I have twin like older brother who is couple of years older than me.
It's the lower of a pair of twin primes $p,p+2$.
We both are cryptographers who love to play with fractions and our digital signatures consisting of long sequences that are closely tied to our age and a tad shorter than our ages.
Something about fractions gives a long sequence of digits related to $p$, a sequence which is just a little shorter than length $p$. That suggests we're looking for a full reptend prime, whose reciprocal $1/p$ has a cyclic decimal expansion consisting of a cyclic number repeated.
Since my signature is closely tied to the reciprocal of my age, I can recall the entire sequence mentally using the key and simple method.
This is the key part (pun intended). Since the signature (cyclic number) times $p$ equals $99999...999$, we can construct each digit of the signature in turn.
Starting from the front of the number ($16...$), we would proceed as follows:
Divide successive powers of $10$ by $p$:
$10^2div59=1.(dots)$,
$10^3div59=16.(dots)$,
$10^4div59=169.(dots)$,
$10^5div59=1,694.(dots)$,
$10^6div59=16,949.(dots)$,
$10^7div59=169,491.(dots)$,
$10^8div59=1,694,915.(dots)$,
$10^9div59=16,949,152.(dots)$,
etc.
Starting from the end of the number ($...61$), we would proceed as follows:
Find the reciprocal of $59$ modulo each power of $10$ and multiply it by $99$.
$59times61equiv99text (mod 10^2)$
$59times661equiv999text (mod 10^3)$
$59times9,661equiv9,999text (mod 10^4)$
$59times79,661equiv99,999text (mod 10^5)$
$59times779,661equiv999,999text (mod 10^6)$
$59times6,779,661equiv9,999,999text (mod 10^7)$
$59times06,779,661equiv99,999,999text (mod 10^8)$
$59times406,779,661equiv999,999,999text (mod 10^9)$
etc.
We are special family of 9 who are in prime shape and none of us have hit the century mark yet.
There are 9 full reptend primes under 100: namely $7, 17, 19, 23, 29, 47, 59, 61, 97$.
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
As nicely explained as this is, it does seem to boil down to "find the reciprocal of p", which as you've shown is trivial and the one used to find any fraction (given a pen and paper, I'd hate to hold that in my head I admit). I felt Uvc's comment below to state the "method employed" implied some mnemonic to remember the digits.

Oh I'm not criticising the method, just that I felt it was the standard way to calculate any of this form so was almost redundant. Finding the actual number wasn't such a problem, finding a way to memorise it without tedious calculation however seems the greater feat. There's a fairly high proportion of double digits, but even then given the length of the number, short of splitting it into segments and base changes, I can't see a simple way...

Oh dear, that really is an unpleasant algorithm to look at. It's really just the inverse of the first, but due to the old left-to-right bias the multiplication instead of division doesn't manage to make it look very friendly! (Especially the 10^8).

Surely not the intended answer
Jaap has of course identified the intended sequence. It seems to me that all the algorithms described so far are strictly more complicated than the following, which is simply another way of formulating the division operation and seems entirely straightforward to do in one's head. However, it can't be the intended answer because supposedly the process is much simpler for this number than for its "twin"'s. (Which the process described below isn't.)
You need to keep track of a single number between 0 and 59 inclusive, and to be able to multiply and divide small numbers. Initially, your number is 10. Now repeat the following process. 1. Multiply the number by 10. 2. Divide it by 59. 3a. Next digit is the quotient. 3b. New value of the number is the remainder. 4. Repeat these steps until the number reaches 1.
I have trouble understanding how any other process could actually be simpler than this. (But perhaps I'll be surprised!)

The numbers $59$ and $61$ are a pair of twin primes ("in prime shape. I have twin like older brother").

Another useful property is that the second half of a cyclic number is the nines complement of the first half (i.e. the two halves add to $999...9$), so once you reach the $983$ you can just recite the complement digits.

The numbers $59$ and $61$ are a pair of twin primes ("in prime shape. I have twin like older brother").
$$frac159 = 0.0169491525423728813559322033898305084745762711864406779661016949...$$
This reciprocal ("reciprocal of my age") has a repeating section of $58$ digits ("tad shorter than our ages"), which apart from the leading zero starts with $16$ and ends with $61$. A number $p$ whose reciprocal has a period of $p-1$ is necessarily prime, and called a full reptend prime. The repeated sequence of digits of length $p-1$ is a cyclic number ("bike rider"). There are 9 full reptend primes ("family of 9") under $100$ ("none of us have hit the century mark yet"), namely $7$, $17$, $19$, $23$, $29$, $47$, $59$, $61$, and $97$.
So the answer is
$169491525423728813559322033898305084745762711864406779661$
I am not sure I have found the intended "key" and generating method, but one possible method is the following.
Presumably it has to depend on the fact that the sequence of digits is a cyclic number. This means that if you multiply it by any number between $1$ and $p-1$ you get the same digits, except cyclically rotated. It happens that multiplying by 9 gives you the same sequence starting 5 digits further on. So what you could do is memorise a key of the first five digits, and calculate the rest. Multiplying by 9 is easily done by multiplying by 10 and subtracting once.
The method is then as follows:
Write the key $16949$ twice, the bottom one shifted one digit to the right.16949
16949
------ -
1525...
You subtract from left to right, and then append the digits you found to continue the subtraction:169491525

Edit:
Quick explanation, mostly covered by Jaap Scherphuis' answer already:
The family of 9 are referring to the full reptend primes under 100, namely $7, 17, 19, 23, 29, 47, 59, 61, 97$, of which the "brothers" are $59$ and $61$, and the "father" is $97$.
The sequence 16xxxx61 is tied to the reciprocal of $1/59$, which has a 58 digit repeating decimal sequence:
$0169491525423728813559322033898305084745762711864406779661$
My construction method:
I found a construction method that doesn't require starting with any particular (long) number. It uses a division trick called Leapfrog division to compute the value of $1/59$:
Start with $1$ ("the digital code"). At each step we will divide the current number by $6$ to get a quotient and a remainder. In step one we have:
$1 / 6$ = $0,1$ (where the 1st value is the quotient, and the 2nd value is the remainder)
Now take the remainder, $1$ and append the quotient $0$ to get the next number to divide: $10$:
$10 / 6$ = $1,4$
$41 / 6$ = $6,5$
$56 / 6$ = $9,2$
$29 / 6$ = $4,5$
$54 / 6$ = $9,0$
$09 / 6$ = $1,3$
$31 / 6$ = $5,1$
$15 / 6$ = $2,3$
$32 / 6$ = $5,2$
$25 / 6$ = $4,1$
etc.
The quotient values form the decimal expansion of $1/59$:
$0.01694915254...$ which is the sequence we are looking for minus the leading zero.
The reason this works is because we are trying to compute $1/59$, and since $59$ ends in a $9$, we can use leapfrog division using $6$ as the divisor instead of $59$.
(Old answer removed, apparently it was confusing the issue)

@jsi. Although this is nice simplification of Japp’s original suggestion, what I am looking for is the numerical code which used repeatedly to generate the rest of the sequence. Current solution involves generating the first five digits presumably by straightforward division and then applying the algorithm.

@jsl yes..also your method needs the first 5 digits be computed first and apply leapfrog technique..mine involves only knowing the reptand number, initial digit is given by the rule for all reptand s..then simple operation to be performed for determining digits using the simple numeric code...all the 29 digits can be derived...in conjunction with 9 compliment rule..rest of the digits can be written right.

@jsl yes..also your method needs the first 5 digits be computed first and apply leapfrog technique..mine involves only knowing the reptand number, initial digit is given by the rule for all reptand s..then simple operation to be performed for determining digits using the simple numeric code...all the 29 digits can be derived...in conjunction with 9 compliment rule..rest of the digits can be written right. Away..my method involves no initial computation of the seed number and much faster.

@jsi. Although this is nice simplification of Japp’s original suggestion, what I am looking for is the numerical code which used repeatedly to generate the rest of the sequence. Current solution involves generating the first five digits presumably by straightforward division and then applying the algorithm.

@Uvc Still not sure what you want, but I came up with a construction method where the starting numeric code is "1".

@jsi As I stated, you have to find the code number which used repeatedly generates the next number in the sequence in a very simple way. Beauty of Reptand primes is for some of them , sequence can be written immediately without ever seeing the sequence before..follow me for further clues.

@Uvc You must be looking for some specific method. The leapfrog division method in my latest edit is so simple I can do it in my head, but I take it that the one you have in mind is just as simple or even more so.

Jaap Scherpuis found the answer, but the OP wants more explanation and a simple construction...
I am middle aged bike rider still in prime shape.
We're looking for a prime number $p$, somewhere around the 40s or 50s maybe.
I have twin like older brother who is couple of years older than me.
It's the lower of a pair of twin primes $p,p+2$.
We both are cryptographers who love to play with fractions and our digital signatures consisting of long sequences that are closely tied to our age and a tad shorter than our ages.
Something about fractions gives a long sequence of digits related to $p$, a sequence which is just a little shorter than length $p$. That suggests we're looking for a full reptend prime, whose reciprocal $1/p$ has a cyclic decimal expansion consisting of a cyclic number repeated.
Since my signature is closely tied to the reciprocal of my age, I can recall the entire sequence mentally using the key and simple method.
This is the key part (pun intended). Since the signature (cyclic number) times $p$ equals $99999...999$, we can construct each digit of the signature in turn.
Starting from the front of the number ($16...$), we would proceed as follows:
Divide successive powers of $10$ by $p$:
$10^2div59=1.(dots)$,
$10^3div59=16.(dots)$,
$10^4div59=169.(dots)$,
$10^5div59=1,694.(dots)$,
$10^6div59=16,949.(dots)$,
$10^7div59=169,491.(dots)$,
$10^8div59=1,694,915.(dots)$,
$10^9div59=16,949,152.(dots)$,
etc.
Starting from the end of the number ($...61$), we would proceed as follows:
Find the reciprocal of $59$ modulo each power of $10$ and multiply it by $99$.
$59times61equiv99text (mod 10^2)$
$59times661equiv999text (mod 10^3)$
$59times9,661equiv9,999text (mod 10^4)$
$59times79,661equiv99,999text (mod 10^5)$
$59times779,661equiv999,999text (mod 10^6)$
$59times6,779,661equiv9,999,999text (mod 10^7)$
$59times06,779,661equiv99,999,999text (mod 10^8)$
$59times406,779,661equiv999,999,999text (mod 10^9)$
etc.
We are special family of 9 who are in prime shape and none of us have hit the century mark yet.
There are 9 full reptend primes under 100: namely $7, 17, 19, 23, 29, 47, 59, 61, 97$.

As nicely explained as this is, it does seem to boil down to "find the reciprocal of p", which as you've shown is trivial and the one used to find any fraction (given a pen and paper, I'd hate to hold that in my head I admit). I felt Uvc's comment below to state the "method employed" implied some mnemonic to remember the digits.

Oh I'm not criticising the method, just that I felt it was the standard way to calculate any of this form so was almost redundant. Finding the actual number wasn't such a problem, finding a way to memorise it without tedious calculation however seems the greater feat. There's a fairly high proportion of double digits, but even then given the length of the number, short of splitting it into segments and base changes, I can't see a simple way...

Oh dear, that really is an unpleasant algorithm to look at. It's really just the inverse of the first, but due to the old left-to-right bias the multiplication instead of division doesn't manage to make it look very friendly! (Especially the 10^8).

Surely not the intended answer
Jaap has of course identified the intended sequence. It seems to me that all the algorithms described so far are strictly more complicated than the following, which is simply another way of formulating the division operation and seems entirely straightforward to do in one's head. However, it can't be the intended answer because supposedly the process is much simpler for this number than for its "twin"'s. (Which the process described below isn't.)
You need to keep track of a single number between 0 and 59 inclusive, and to be able to multiply and divide small numbers. Initially, your number is 10. Now repeat the following process. 1. Multiply the number by 10. 2. Divide it by 59. 3a. Next digit is the quotient. 3b. New value of the number is the remainder. 4. Repeat these steps until the number reaches 1.
I have trouble understanding how any other process could actually be simpler than this. (But perhaps I'll be surprised!)

Jaap has of course identified the intended sequence. It seems to me that all the algorithms described so far are strictly more complicated than the following, which is simply another way of formulating the division operation and seems entirely straightforward to do in one's head. However, it can't be the intended answer because supposedly the process is much simpler for this number than for its "twin"'s. (Which the process described below isn't.)
You need to keep track of a single number between 0 and 59 inclusive, and to be able to multiply and divide small numbers. Initially, your number is 10. Now repeat the following process. 1. Multiply the number by 10. 2. Divide it by 59. 3a. Next digit is the quotient. 3b. New value of the number is the remainder. 4. Repeat these steps until the number reaches 1.
I have trouble understanding how any other process could actually be simpler than this. (But perhaps I'll be surprised!)

Or perhaps we have different ideas about what's easier than what, of course :-).
