Bike path

[sonofabish.livejournal.com]

I've gotten off my butt and started biking again and I've been taking the bike path that parallels Highland westbound into Davis. Once I hit Davis, there's the sign about the bike path picking up again on the other side of Davis. Where exactly does it do this, considering there are something like 23 billion streets leading out of Davis.

And I am grateful to those of you who have politely stifled chuckles as a large man with a shaved head and no shirt goes whizzing sputtering past.....

Re: Even farther

The path to the office park is quite pretty and wooded, and is also useful if you want to continue riding further north, such as to North Billerica (where you can get a train back to West Medford or Boston) or to Lowell.

From the end of the path to Concord, it's a short ride to the Concord station where you can get a train back to Porter Square or Boston.

Friends of Bedford Depot Park have a page about the three trails that meet at the depot. That page has links to detailed PDF trail guides:

Narrow-Gauge Rail Trail to Billerica
Reformatory Branch Trail to Concord

If you want to ride either of these, I recommend a hybrid or mountain bike.
