National Bike Month

Around 50 million people in America go bike riding each month. Bicycling helps an individual build muscle tone, lose weight and build endurance. It is also a relatively easy way to exercise and the only commitment you really need to make to it is to buy a bike. It can be done pretty much anywhere, even while traveling. In honor of National Bike Month, we’ve put together our list of trips that incorporate biking.
