Exploring Baltimore's Byways, Trails and Parks Through Public Transit

About Naturally Maryland, Naturally MTA
This blog tracks the progress of a long term project designed by Christopher Johnson, an environmental manager and consultant.

Throughout the summer and autumn of 2010, Mr. Johnson will be exploring the benefits of Baltimore's many recreational opportunities. He will do this, however, by throwing his hiking boots and/or fold-up bicycle on board his city's public transit system.

This blog will report on Mr. Johnson's public transit adventures. It will designed to be eventually published into a handy local outdoor recreation guide that will attain three major goals:

1) Help low income, especially inner city, citizens, with no access to a car, reach inspiring natural areas that will benefit their physical and mental health.

2) Help environmentally conscious hikers and bikers reach their favorite local destinations without the guilt of polluting their beloved natural areas via the consumption of polluting, unsustainable fossil fuels.

3) Advocate the benefits the Maryland Transit Administration's (MTA's) system contributes to our community.

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
