May is National Bike Month! As an avid bike rider, I may be biased but I see it as one of the best ways to enjoy the beautiful outdoors. Not only does biking offer spectacular views, but it promotes safer streets, connected communities, a healthier planet, and happier people. Send me photos and descriptions of the bike routes you take to school, work, and on weekend explorations. I'll share some of my favorite ways to get in a bike ride throughout the month as well.
