As my screenname suggests, I'm from Indianapolis. I'm not an MTBer but there are some good trails in Carmel from what I understand and, of course, in Brown County. Plenty of decent road riding, too. There are some decent organized rides and the local club in Indianapolis is pretty active. Plenty of races, too.
I don't know what the cycling scene in Russiaville is like, but one of the better bike shops in town, especially for MTB, is Nebo Ridge in Zionsville. Jonathan, the manager there is the president or vice president of the HMBA. He's also a good bike fitter and all around nice guy. He can give you some good information and suggestions.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
