Massachusetts is blessed with an impressive network of thousands of backroads, most of them paved but not heavily traveled. Beyond the built-up metropolitan areas, which compose a very small percentage of the state, the landscape is rural enough to give a cyclist a sense of remoteness and serenity, and yet the nearest town, village or grocery is never more than a few miles away. The terrain is refreshingly varied for such a relativity small state. This book is a guide to cycling in the portion of Massachusetts within a reasonable commuting distance of Boston, covering the area between the Cape Cod Canal and a north-south line just each of Worcester and Fitchburg. The region, along with along with the sections of Rhode Island and New Hampshire just over the state lines, offers ideal cycling. Each ride includes precise written directions, excellent route maps, safety tips, availability of food and facilities, vivid descriptions f points of interest, and level of difficulty, including mileage. |

This newly updated guide to mountain biking in the eastern half of Massachusetts features 25 destinations for enthusiasts of all abilities. There are many places to ride in Massachusetts' extensive system of state parks and public and privately owned reservation lands, but finding the best of these off-road riding opportunities is another matter. Massachusetts-born Robert Morse has been exploring his state's byways and trails for years and has selected the very best non-paved rides for this book, now completely revised and updated. Cyclists may be surprised to find outstanding mountain biking right within the metropolitan Boston area, as well as rides ranging from coastal trails on Cape Cod to mountain summits in the Holyoke Range. Each tour description includes a map, detailed mile-by-mile directions, practical information, and points of interest along the way. Tours range from 2.5 to 21 miles in length, from beginner to advanced. This edition features three new tours--in the Blue Hills Reservation outside Boston, and in Leominster and Erving State Forests in central Massachusetts. A new overview chart provides detailed information on the rides at a glance. Three new rides are included in this edition. |
