Newton-Weston loop (28 miles) with optional ice cream social

Join us for a lovely 28 mile ride mostly on backroads, with some nature areas and historic homes. We will do a pace of 12-15 mph and it's rather hilly (over 1400 feet). If you're not sure of your pace, be sure to contact the organizer ahead to ensure it will be a good fit. A helmet and water are required. Please download the route ahead of time (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/52700936)*. The start and end location is T-accessible, at White Mountain Creamery in Chestnut Hill, MA (https://maps.app.goo.gl/F1uYW8kKAxsunivBA). Arrive by 9:45 a.m.; we will have a pre-ride talk at 9:50am and will leave promptly 10am. We will have an optional social gathering at the White Mountain Creamery at the end of the ride. If the ride is canceled for weather or any other reason, check this listing in the a.m. before heading out. We will ride together at the pace listed.
