Mass Central Rail Trail

Ware to Gilbertville and Gilbertville to Wheelwright

November, 2024 by arno911

Rode the two sections of this beautiful trail today. From the parking spot in the middle of the Ware trail towards Gilbertville is a nice ride along the river. But a short one. Opposite the old factory the trail suddenly ends and there are handwritten signs "Stop, Don´t go further, Private property..." It would only take a few yards to reach the next road to travel on towards Gilbertville. No chance. Shame on you, property owners! (The trailmap shows a way through, but that might be an error?)

Okay, same way back and on to Route 32 past Gilbertville, where the next trailhead is waiting;-)
Smooth surface, well maintained and even good for kids bikes and flat all the way to Wheelwright. 3 nice old bridges. This is one is fully recommended! Absolutely worth it.

Southern New England Trunkline Trail

A gravel riding sampler trail.

November, 2024 by walkinator007

This trail is a mixed bag. I mean literally you can expect to see everything from nice paved road, to chunky, rocky eroded sand, and everything in between. A fair amount of light gravel and packed clay and dirt for fast gravel riding. some sandy parts where you’d benefit from a wider tire. some chunky rocks and eroded sections. If you’re doing the whole thing, gravel or hybrid bike at the least. Wider tires and suspension are recommended. I did this on a gravel bike with relatively narrow all terrain tires and it was great most of the time but definitely not optimal for the roughest sections. overall this ia great trail to learn gravel riding and test your bike’s capabilities.

Nashua River Rail Trail

Long and fast trail

November, 2024 by georgerisktaker

Very long for a paved trail and the few road crossings do not have much traffic. There are no more roots coming through the pavement than one would expect, and they all are painted white where they exist. A fast trail. There are towns in both the northern and southern part of the trail to grab food and/or drink. The trail is mostly in Massachusetts.

East Bay Bike Path (RI)

easily makes the top 4 bike trails in the state.

November, 2024 by walkinator007

This path passes through a state park, is shaded, there's quite a decent hill climb and windy section on the north end, but the rest of it is easy.

William C. O'Neill Bike Path

smooth and clean

November, 2024 by walkinator007

This is my childhood bike path, it’s a lot shorter than I remembered now that I have the speed and endurance I do. Still a wonderful ride through the swamp and forests of south Kingstown, through peace dale and wakefield , to the beaches of Narragansett.

Washington Secondary Bike Path

Quite the good climb going south

November, 2024 by walkinator007

as of october 2024 this path is paved and quite nice.

Blackstone River Greenway

Wonderful trail

November, 2024 by walkinator007

This is my favorite trail in the state, very scenic along the river. best part is from woonsocket to lincoln. Some parts of this trail through the city are poorly marked and you need to share the road with cars.

Concord River Greenway

easy walk, cool trail

October, 2024 by brianhagopian1

A little under a mile, this trail meanders and crosses the Concord River twice, providing great views. Not crowded at all with good views of old mill buildings

Shining Sea Bikeway

Trail is partially closed

October, 2024 by janellhome

I love this trail, but right now part of it is closed for utilities repair. It will not be open until March 2025. You can still go for a ride, but you will have to take a detour on the street.

Nashua River Rail Trail

Beautiful Biking Trail

October, 2024 by wats7park

Rode the entire trail from Ayer, MA to Nashua, NH then back to Ayer on 10/09/24. Paved the entire length and extremely well maintained with frost heaves painted white, although, one should be careful when sections of the trail are leaf strewn, as it was yesterday. Suitable for walkers, joggers, rollerblading and cycling. This is the nicest trail I’ve ridden since moving to Massachusetts 2 years ago

Shining Sea Bikeway

so much fun!!!

October, 2024 by jsosnik

And on the beach, a million horseshoe crabs…

Shining Sea Bikeway

Nice...some bumpy sections to watch for

September, 2024 by ccarlsonnh

Enjoyed my ride on this trail. One sees the "shining sea" for maybe a mile and a half or so the rest being village, woods, and wetland views. There are some pretty big bumps in some areas due to tree roots. One in particular nearly bounced me off and they are not marked well. So, keep hands tight on handlebars and pay attention. Sandwich shop/bakery in Woods Hole is awesome!
