My husband and I are senior citizens (he, 71 & I am 67 years young). Due to some health challenges, I was hesitant and pretty convinced that a bike ride, which I love, could not happen with ease. My daughter convinced me otherwise.
Today’s bike ride exceeded every expectation. Instructions from Mr. John was precise, easy to execute and made my anxiety quickly disappear. My bike ride was extremely enjoyable and it allowed me to enjoy outdoors once again.
Ms. Christine was a joy as well. She was very patient with us and extremely well prepared to share a wealth of historical knowledge about Falmouth and surrounding locations. We walk away learning new and exciting history.
Thank you Mr. John and Ms. Christine for the beautiful uneventful bike ride today. We are looking forward to sharing our positive experience with others and returning for more bike rides in the near future.
