Not saying you're incorrect, but what kind of soul and character are you looking for. I don't check this sub forum often, so feel free to send me a pm I might be able to point you in the right direction.

Good idea. I spent one night there and liked the town for bike riding.

Do you ever use your bicycle as a tool to get out and view some of the places in the history of nationalism? I use mine to view places of settlement-era history in the Great Lakes region of the U.S. (www.spokesrider.com)
