While many are staying cooped up in their homes during the recent onslaught of COVID-19, for those who are looking for something to do to clear their mind and stay away from others a good recommendation would be doing some bicycling.
The temperatures are climbing into the upper 70s to lower 80s which makes for the perfect weather to climb on a bicycle seat and pedal away taking in the beautiful flowers and trees that are starting to hit full bloom.
Not to mention the physical exercise that comes with a nice bike ride. If one doesn’t like riding the many miles of roadway in Carter County, there is always the Tweetsie Trail that runs from Elizabethton to Johnson City.
