Bike Ride Anyone?

It's time to get the bike out of the garage

The days are getting longer and temperatures have been soaring.  It's time to get your bike out and enjoy the world on two wheels.   The Middlesex Fells Mountain Bike Loop can make you feel like you are in New Hampshire or Maine when in reality you're only seven or eight miles north of Boston.  The Minuteman Bike Trail offers a wonderful ride from Cambridge to Bedford.  If you enjoy a more urban setting start your ride at City Square Park in Charlestown and you'll be surprised where it takes you.

Even Boston's mayor, Tom Menino is trying to make Boston a world-class bicycling city!  With rising temperatures and gas prices this is an idea whose time has come.
