Wife is 74 with second-stage kidney failure & 20% heart activity backed by a defibrillator. I'm79 with a wide range of hurts. She can't ride anymore, and I'm ready to do my second start-over as soon as it's 55 degrees here in northern Indiana.

We've gotta get out of here next winter for the whole winter! Any suggestions?

We used to travel widely in our work and have been everywhere in the U.S. We have friends in Phoenix & Tucson, relatives in the Smokies but no one anywhere else. Ideally, we'd drive somewhere and take along my bikes. But I can't handle mountains at this stage, and I don't have the stamina for heavy winds. She'd love the beach, so we're considering Florida panhandle or Tampa area. Also Charleston, her favorite city. Or maybe Savannah.

I want the ability (weather/wind) to ride 20-30 miles every day, preferably using designated bikeways for safety reasons. Want an area where motorists are bike-friendly. Would even be nice to make a friend or two for exploring.

Ideas would be appreciated.
