This is one of the best rides in Massachusetts! Though very wet in the spring and fall, Bald Hill is a wildlife sanctuary with an incredible trail running around/through/near it. Follow the white markers on the trees for a 10 mile ride or so, but you can get quickly lost if you stray from ...

Great place to burn the lungs. The first half of the ride is pure uphill with some cool singletrack, rather well maintained. Keep on your way up until you hit the water tower and bear right. From there, you have access to all kinds of fun singletrack, just watch out for people. I'd say hea...

There are two parts to Callahan - the nice side, and the ugly side. The nice side is about an hour's worth of riding along great single track through the woods and across fields. A few roots and rocks, but otherwise, very nice trail. Watch out for the abundance of people/pets, though. Plen...

This is a paved walkway with more people and dogs than you can count. I'm posting this as a note to other riders that this barely qualifies as "biking." :) Very pretty, though, and wonderful for people either learning how to ride a bike or for those in the later years just looking to stret...

Lots of single track loops off of a main doubletrack route. The terrain gets more challenging the farther from the parking area you travel. We rode for 2 1/2 hours and had to stop to find our way back out. It is easy to get sucked in and keep rallying and easy to forget how many lefts an...
