I live in Massachusetts about 25 minutes from this trail, my absolute favorite trail is the East Bay bike path, but that is about an hour drive for me, so this is one I frequent more often. I like the length of this ride, and that it is scenic, and more interesting than some of the rail trails that can be kind of boring. I think it is an easy ride, with just a few spots I need to lower my gears. I pack a lunch, snacks, and can be out for a few hours. There is ample parking, 195 Davison Ave Woonsocket is the address I use for WAZE. I have never gone as far as Providence, so I can only review Woonsocket - Lincoln.
It’s my go to trail because it’s so close to my house ! you can walk down close to the river it’s cute . i always get to see ducks in the pond
In Boston area last week for a conference and decided to try out the Minuteman Trail. Spouse and I have been enjoying bike/rail trails over the past few years and usually one of the first things we check out when traveling to a new area. Trail was in great shape & was as good as expected. Being summer, it was pretty hot weather but the trail provided ample shade for us to stay cool. Particularly appreciated the history of the trail, and it's relevance to Paul Revere's late night ride. This was our first time in the Greater Boston area, as we're from North Carolina. All in all, a good ride and fun experience.
A delightful paved trail in excellent condition. Relatively flat with some pretty views of the lake. There is a side spur to Speen Street that connects to the Natick Mall. Great for a quick and easy ride.
I took a ride on a gravel bike from Putnam to Willimantic and back yesterday. I crossed the bridge in Putnam from Kennedy Drive (a nice paved path there along the north shore of the river!) to pick up the Air Line, which my map app shows as starting there. Though there were some short bits of various trails there, none of them went anywhere. I ended up back on roads and made my way to Town Farm road where the Air Line commenced, with signage. However, the next several miles were very rough, and I would not recommend riding there except with a balloon tire mountain bike with front and back suspension. But from the Pomfret Station on to Willimantic, it was either beautiful, or at least fine, except for some road crossing s with very steep and rocky ramps on both sides. For most riders, those ramps have to be negotiated off the bike. But overall, I had a great experience!
Did the whole thing west to east and back in one ride. Enjoyed the history for the trail that was posted along the trail. Give you a chance to stop, slow down and just enjoy the ride. Half of the trail is stone dust but still good. No big ruts and water channels (even with all the rain we had recently). Plenty of parking along the way is you want to jump into a section of the trail. There are even repair station on the trail if you have a bike problem. Greatly appreciate the convenience of it. Enjoy the ride!
I’ve skated every inch of this path dozens of times over many years. There’s a badly done asphalt patch at mile nine plus 100 yards (from the south end) that has a sharp lip that can face plant you. There are a fair number of root heaves that need your attention but can be skated or stepped over. There’s a public bathroom in the lobby of the Warren police station 150 feet from the trail (around mile 4 from the south end). Walk up the stone stairs from Joyce St.

Just rode from Pomfret west to the Rt6 overpass. Most of the trail is good riding except for some rocky sections, but the overgrowth is starting to close off the trail in sections. It is down to just one lane. It would be nice if the state could mow the weeds.
We are stayin at Pine Lake RV resort and wanted to do a paved bike ride. The gravel road reviews made me uncertain. But it was great. Some small inclines but nice ride to the Westville Dam. Very nice destination for a bike ride. Took road back on other side of dam. Much more mountain bike ride but still easy enough. So glad the parking lot was marked well. We almost drove 30 miles for another ride.
Thoroughly enjoyable, three hour ride, passing chest at the beach, through neighborhoods, wildlife conservation areas, and over bridges. The Bristol parking lot is being redone and cannot be used, but we found parking on the streets. There were at least two detours in Barrington, but that made it only more exciting. only nice people on the trail and drivers stopped very politely at every of the many intersections. Overall, this ride was a pleasure and worth the 1 Hour drive to get there.
What a perfect ride on a Monday afternoon. Delighted to stop at Plant City for refreshments before we turned around and headed back to Bristol.
