Description: Though rich in history, Maudslay doesn't offer anything more than some nicely packed rolling doubletrack and some interesting views. The park is somehow split into two sides, one of which is mostly wooded trails, and the other half has double track going through some wide open spaces, including former house foundations, a few stone bridges, and a habitat for the bald eagle (which was nowhere to be seen). It's really just a nice place to take a leisurely ride; though the trails are perfect for tearing through, there are far too many horses, people, dogs, people with kids, kids with dogs, people on horses, and joggers to avoid.

Checked it out today - lots of people to avoid, even on a Wednesday morning. Rather muddy on the double track, though some of it was nicely frozen (and still iced over, which was cool). There is some neat scenery if you like history, but otherwise, it's a basic ride that's not worth the drive if you live near Boston.
