Happy World Bicycle Day!🚴‍♀️With so many benefits, it's not surprise that the World Health Organization (WHO) actively promotes cycling for the value it brings to our health, our environment, and our community. Another big plus is bike riding is a low-impact activity, making it ideal for older adults. Great for heart health, strength, mobility, the list goes on! Looking for inspiration to get started?
