What to do and see in Frederick, Maryland (MD): The Best Outdoor Activities

January 11, 2022 Darleen Reid

With its collection of historic homes, museums and battlefields, Frederick, Maryland, is a must-see destination for any history enthusiast. The sites of two bloody Civil War battles are preserved at Monocacy National Park and South Mountain State Park. Within the city, visit the National Museum of Civil War Medicine and learn how soldiers wounded in those battles were treated, or visit the house of Barbara Fritchie and picture her hanging the Stars & Stripes in defiance of the Confederate Army.

My husband and I were seriously considering electric bikes. I have R/A and a bit of trouble with my knees, not to mention that I haven't ridden a bike in 30 years, so a regular bike was out of the question. After much research, we found Pedego, and then Mimi and Todd. They were safety conscious with masks, and outfitted us with the perfect bikes. We're still getting used to them, but are enjoying them so much. Mimi and Todd were both so helpful in making sure we had the right fit, and all the information we needed, as well as any safety equipment. Todd has great stories to tell, and they're certainly an "All Star" Business.
