A question about Boston bike trails....?



Hi everyone. Since the weather is becoming nicer, I have started to add a biking regimen in addition to my regular walking on the treadmill. I do travel a lot, and my next road trip will be to Boston. I wanted to know if there any bike trails in the greater Boston area, but particularly with an emphasis on flat trails, which are good for beginners. I know the web site http://www.massbike.org is a good starting point, but I thought I'd ask the locals-does anyone know of some straight bike trails? Also, are you charged to use the parks if you are a visitor? Thanks, Steve.

I think MassBike is your best starting point.

I love the ride up and around the Charles River. Recently I purchased a bike after not riding one for many years (Lyme Disease). I'm hopeful I will be able to do this without too much huffing and puffing.

My next favorite is the Bike Path along the Cape Cod Canal. It is a beautiful flat path and you have the most remarkable views of the boats coming and going.

I'm told that Callahan Park in Framingham is also a good spot for beginner to intermediate bikers. You can find it by googling.

Happy bicycling, if I think of more I will let you know. Source(s): http://www.massbike.org/bikeways/bikmtro...

Go an hour south to Rhode Island. The bike path takes you from Providence to Colt State park about 30 miles away.
Have I done it? No. Bed to chair, but many do and love it.

Hi darl, Excuse me for ansering this, because it's not Boston, but check out the Youghiogheny Bike trail. I'm looking forward to it next summer.

Around the Charles River is a great spot where people always bike, roller blade, etc. and you can't ask for a better view of the city!
