This year’s event was just fabulous!
Love the Full Moon Ride! And the weather for this year’s version — on Sept. 14 — couldn’t have been better!
Continue reading “Some photos from Lawrence Hopewell Trail’s Full Moon Ride”An adventure using the Upper Bucks Rail Trail, the Saucon Rail Trail, the South Bethlehem Greenway and the D&L Trail.
How did this bike ride end up being 49 miles?
Continue reading “Quakertown to Allentown and beyond plus a dinosaur footprint, 4 rail trails and a bike”The story about how the observatory came to be is just wild. And it’s only 2 miles from the Columbia Trail.
The Columbia Trail gets lots of love. It’s a 15-mile trail in Hunterdon and Morris counties that started life as a railroad, then became a trail when a gas company ran a gas line underneath.
Continue reading “Biking and stargazing (if skies are clear) along the Columbia Trail”I hadn’t ridden between Burlington and Bordentown in a long time. Had the route improved? And how many warehouses would I find?
The Delaware River Heritage Trail is a developing loop on the New Jersey and Pennsylvania sides of the Delaware River. I hadn’t been on the stretch between Bordentown and Burlington in a while. Plus New Jersey Transit is free this week. Two good reasons to check it out again!
Continue reading “Delaware River Heritage Trail: 16 miles from Burlington to Bordentown”The Minuteman Bikeway, the Bruce Freeman Trail and more. Plus some cool art along the Somerville Community Path.
My ears perked up when a friend told us that you can now bike from Boston to Lowell on a string of connecting trails.
It turns out that wasn’t quite true — we still had a couple of road miles. And you’ll need cue sheets, your Garmin or a helpful friend who knows the way to keep the ride going smoothly.
But it was still a great 35 miles or so.

I’ve been following the progress of a trail in New Hampshire that will one day practically go border to border, from Massachusetts to Maine. And now 7 miles or so of are done and ready for the big ribbon-cutting in September.
Only we were headed to Maine in August. So why wait?
Continue reading “We biked this trail in New Hampshire ahead of the official ribbon-cutting”I’ve been raving about the Farmington Canal Heritage Trail since 2016. It’s gotten even better since then.
This past weekend I biked Connecticut from south to north, from New Haven across the state line to Southwick, Mass., as I took part in the East Coast Greenway‘s Ride the State ride.
Continue reading “Biking Connecticut from New Haven to Massachusetts — the state’s trails are tops”The bridge across the Hudson River north of NYC has a bike/walk path.
Biking across the replacement for the Tappan Zee Bridge (I know, I’m supposed to say the Mario Cuomo Bridge) has been on my to-do list since the bike lane section opened, oh, about five years ago.
Continue reading “The good and bad of biking across the Mario Cuomo Bridge (aka the new Tappan Zee Bridge)”Our bike ride from Cleveland to Cincinnati is complete
After 326+ miles on the Ohio to Erie Trail, we are in Cincinnati!
