Biking Belhaven
There is no shortage of good bike routes in Jackson, but a popular place to go for a relaxing bike ride is the Belhaven neighborhood.
Virgi Lindsay, director of the Greater Belhaven Neighborhood Foundation, says she believes one of the most important reasons why Belhaven attracts bikers is its central location. People who work downtown are only a few minutes away, making it convenient to work a bike ride into their schedule. The terrain is hilly enough to challenge riders and interesting to look at. Plus, the Greater Belhaven Security Association’s patrols make riders feel a little safer in the neighborhood.
