Overnight stops will feature great places to camp and hardy meals featuring fresh local products. Participants who prefer an alternative to camping can sleep indoors at our host schools or choose to stay close by at local inns or B&Bs.;

Registered riders will receive maps, route descriptions, lists of local attractions along the route, access to snack stops, SAG support, a commemorative T-shirt, and the camaraderie of friendly folks having a good time.

Proceeds from the event will benefit MassBike, the statewide bicycle advocacy group.
