As we begin to move into fall, nothing is more invigorating than getting out to see the Fall color.  Yes, you can go by airplane, but to get the best view, plan a biking trip through New England or the Midwest to watch the leaves dressed in color.

In this time of high gas prices, biking may be the way to see the country.  Biking through southern Indiana or hitting the American Discovery Trail, which features 6,350 miles of quiet safe back roads and recreational paths throughout the United States, is guaranteed to give you a new appreciation for nature.

As a wise Silver Fox, remember to be adequately prepared for your trip, whether you bike ten miles or 6,000.    Always wear your helmet, take adequate water and plan your route so that you don’t ride at night.  Also, biking is a multi-generational activity – invite your children and grandchildren to go along!  Improve your mental and physical health.
