Details
This blue hills Mountain Bike trip will consist of 2-3 hours of riding, and will cover the sections of trails which are legal to Mountain Bikes. I have attached a map of these trails on the posting. We can decide which trails to ride when we meet, and base them on comfort level/experience.
We can start by riding on fire roads around Houghtons/Ponkapoug Ponds and then go into other sections of the Blue Hills as we see fit. It is suggested that you bring a Mountain Bike (hybrid tires may not be able to get proper traction on the loose ground) so full mountain bike is suggested. You should also bring a helmet and water, maybe a snack too. This is a laid back ride and we will all go at the same pace.
If there is adequate interest, I will post more Mt. Bike trips in the future around eastern New England. If you do not have a mountain bike and would like to attend, please feel free to e-mail me via my profile, and I can suggest rental places in the area.
Directions
We will meet at the Park Headquarters, 695 Hillside Street, Milton, MA, 02186
This is located 1/4 Mile north of Houghtons Pond.
Take Rt 128 to the Houghtons Pond/Ponkapoug Exit, and proceed north on Blue Hill River Road
when its ends at a T, take a right on Hillside St. and follow until you see the signs for Park Headquarters/State Police Barracks. We will meet at the trailhead axcross the street by the parking area. I will be on my Black Cannondale.
