In Search of the Bell Witch


.
The Bell Witch Ride to Adams, TN, is often a popular Saturday club trip. It has a lot of Middle Tennessee history and great cycling roads.
Likewise, some have pedaled on the Avery Trace or thought they did.
If you want to know more about Tennessee pioneer history read my book, In Search of the Bell Witch. It is FREE and on my website.

COGNITIVE FOR THE ELDERLY

- Both exercise and stimulation from the environment can improve cognitive function and well-being in older adults. 
- E-bike participants improve in processing speed (reaction times in go trials of the Stop-It task) after the intervention compared to non-cycling control participants. 
- E-bike participants improved in their mental health score after the intervention compared to non-cycling controls 

Importantly, researchers showed sometimes larger effects for the e-bike group compared to the pedal cyclists. 

With the outdoor environment with e-bikes
potentially providing greater benefits.

SAUNDERSVILLE GREENWAY IN THE PLAN

We asked for Sanders Ferry Greenway in 2000, and we received our beautiful Bike/Pedestrian path in 2024. In 2021, Bruce and Tom walked and designed a new Greenway. It's in the PLAN.

FOGBEE Loss

.

I just learned that fellow Fogbee Joanne Huss passed away on Friday. Most of you knew her and Bob. They were all-around good people and avid cyclists. Marilynn and I knew them from church and a pretty regular weekly meetup for Mexican. I also spent many days with them on multiday bike camping trips, which Jennifer will also remember.

Here is the schedule for the visitation and funeral.
