Cash for Calories

Love this idea – Digngo, a luxury bike tour company is paying its clients $.035 for every calorie burned each day. They say their cyclists can earn an average of $50 a day. These small tours have a maximum of 14 guests on each and are geared (pun intended) for travelers who enjoy a private tour of a chateau, wine tasting or dinner at a local's home. Considering their tours are through France and Italy, it's a good thing they don't subtract for calories ingested in the form of bread, wine or pastries. Check it out at www.digngo.com

Denver's Day
of Rock

The entire mile-high city is a concert on May 29 for the second annual Denver Day of Rock. Twenty bands perform along the 16th Street Mall for this free event from 2:30 to 9:30 PM, with plenty of beer and food booths to refresh. The event is a fundraiser for Concert for Kids, a non-profit that benefits more than 40 children's charities in Denver. Find out more at www.denverdayofrock.com

Georgia Resort Turns 75

I've walked or ridden my bike by the historic King and Prince Resort in St. Simon's for years and she's looking pretty good for 75. Stay here and you can pick from a seaside room, cabana, villa or guesthouse. This island is one of my favorites, with plenty of bike paths, restaurants, shopping and activities for everyone in the family. A beach, bed and breakfast package starts at just $191 a night. www.kingandprince.com
