The Stone Wall ride is a pleasant early summer ride on shaded roads with lots of colorful flowers and bushes that brighten up the stone walls along the way.  The beginning of the ride uses roads in Hamilton that we do not travel on often and then the roads become more familiar in Topsfield and Boxford.
