Join us for an excellent riding experience northwest of Boston.  This ride is a great opportunity for new members to meet and enjoy the camaraderie of our group rides but all are welcome.  We'll pass the Concord River, farms, and explore Great Brook State Park before enjoying ice cream at Bedford Farms near the end. Two great routes to choose from.  Please have navigation either using your phone or bike computer. Please park in the Library lot by taking a right off Mudge Way.  There are two church services near we have parked in the past.
