The trip report

Written by rocketmandan

This ride was listed with Parkway Cycling Club. Since only one member of PCC was going to join me for this exploratory ride, I decided to list it at the last minute on GO too. A member of GO joined and he was very familiar with the Somerville Community Path since he rode to work on this path often. My ride was advertised as a 30 mile ride from Adam's Park in Roslindale and it turned out to be about that. It was another beautiful day with a temp of about 75 and blue skies! I could not have asked for better company either. The PCC member was very willing to explore and try new things. The GO member was very helpful. He split off once we reached Alwife. Two of us ended up having lunch at Burger Barn in Davis Square. It was a really nice day!

About this event

Estimated 30 mile ride in the 10-12 mph range leaving from Adam's Park in the center of Roslindale heading to the Sommerville Bike Path and possibly all the way to the Minute Man Bike Path where we will turn around and head back to Adams Park. This is an exploratory ride for me so we might be doing some bike path finding along the way. There will be at least one straight rider from another bike club with me & I expect more will sign on before we head out. You should bring something to eat in case we don't find a spot to stop. We generally do stop for a coffee and snack somewhere along the way, but as mentioned, this is exploratory for me. You need to be comfortable riding in city traffic.
