Minuteman Bikeway Trail Ride

Come with us to enjoy a fun day of biking and camaraderie! This bike ride will encompass all 11 miles of the Minuteman trail, starting in Davis Square and traversing through Linear Park, then joining up with the Minuteman from Alewife station to Bedford, MA.Bikers will meet at 12 noon outside the Davis Square T station. From there, we will start our ride. All levels are encouraged to attend--this sounds like a long bike ride, but it's doable for just about anyone! There is also no obligation to complete the whole trail.Once in Bedford, riders are encouraged to arrange a ride or take the trail back to Alewife, but there are buses available. Keep in mind that buses can only carry two bikes at a time and drivers may or may not allow bikes inside the vehicle.Most bus rides run around once per hour. Bikers are responsible for knowing bus schedules.Some additional information:Terrain: The terrain on the minuteman is flat and mostly level, with no sharp elevation changes. There are slight rolling hills.What to bring: Bring water, a helmet, and appropriate clothing. The ride will be cancelled in the event of more than a drizzle of rain. Sunscreen can be brought but probably won't be necessary. Extra tubes, tires, and patch kits are encouraged.Rentals: The following shops serve rentals. http://wheelworks.com/articles/ace-wheelworks-pg138.htm (not 100% positive on this one)There is also a hubway stop in Davis.And there are a few bike shops in the area
