There are so many incredible places to bike in the US that when I tried to narrow it down to five, I realized that I couldn’t do it. I ended up cheating a bit and writing out 3 lists. This list is the five best places to go biking in the central US. Please use this as starting point to investigate your adventures, this list is by no means complete.
Waldo Canyon in Colorado. If you bike for the views and the spectacle of it all, this trail is an absolute must for you. The views will quite literally take your breath away. The view from the top is above the treeline and gives you sense that you are looking down from heaven at the most beautiful place on earth. After that feeling, the ride down is extremely exhilarating.

Hobbies are something we all need to do. It may be a bit of exaggeration, yes, but one needs something to occupy the idle time in their days. This will also help keep you sane. It may be a bit over the top, but it’s true to a certain extent. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
It’s up to you to decide what you want to occupy yourself with in your spare time, but if I were to offer advice, I’d say go for something specific. Don’t try to be a jack-of-all-trades, as this will only make you a master of none. Being highly skilled at one or few things is better than being mediocre at a lot of things. Collect figures of dogs or train parrots to talk. Pick a few to concentrate on first.
