I know Somerville has a huge biking community and am trying to do some research on that (the memories are all pretty old). I'm in the midst of my first bike purchase but would love to know more about community events, rides, groups, websites, etc about biking in and around the area (I live in Davis). Thanks!

Team Quad (http://blog.teamquad.org) - Based out of Arlington. Haven't ridden with them yet. I hear most of them are cool but some are a little too competitive.
Good luck!

I believe they ride every Saturday night except during the winter. If it sounds like something you'd be into, go for it. I'm pretty sure some rides are near Davis but don't know how many.
