Boston is beautiful in the summer. Take your bike to Boston and enjoy the amazing scenery and historic sights the city offers. If your bike is not up to the adventure, now is a great time to find mens bikes for sale as well as women’s bikes and e-bikes.
Take A Historic Bike Tour Of The City
A lot of history happened in Boston. See it the fun way with a bike tour. There are many local businesses offering bike tours so you can choose the one that is the right distance for you. Some of the tours offer bike and helmet rentals. For others, you need to bring your own bike.
You can expect to see important sights such as the Boston Common, Trinity Church, and the Charles River Esplanade. There are plenty of places you can stop to eat or have a drink. A historic tour is a great way to get introduced to all the things Boston has to offer.
Bike Arnold Arboretum
Of course, there are many good bike paths in Boston. One of the best is the path around the Arnold Arboretum. The loop is about 4.5 miles and takes you past the oldest public arboretum in North America. It’s not a particularly strenuous bike trail until the very end, making it a great place to try out a tricycle for adults.
At the southern tip of the arboretum is Peters Hill. This is a bit of a climb and you may find yourself walking your bike. Don’t give up. The views of Boston from the top are more than worth the effort.
Great Trails For E-Bikes
If you wondering, “How do motorized bicycles work?” the answer is, “Very well on Boston bike trails.” Whether you are new to e-bikes or a veteran, Boston has some great paths for you. Try the Minuteman Bikeway. This 11-mile rail trail is out of the way and quieter than some of the more crowded areas. It approximates the midnight ride of Paul Revere.
Take your e-bike on the ferry to Deer Island and enjoy riding the 2.6-mile waterfront trail. There are other trails that traverse the island, too. Take a picnic lunch and your fishing pole.
How To Fit In Like A Local
If you want to fit into the Boston bike scene, you should know the rules. Bikes are welcome on all Boston roads except expressways or limited access roads. Be sure to notice any signage prohibiting bikes. Cyclists must obey all the traffic laws, including stop signs and traffic lights. Ride in the direction of traffic and use hand signals to indicate turns and stops.
When safety dictates it, you may ride your bikes on sidewalks as well. If you do this, you must yield to pedestrians and ring a bell when you pass a pedestrian. Bike helmets are required for cyclists age 16 or younger.
There is so much to see and do in Boston. Tune-up your favorite bike and make plans today to enjoy a biking summer in Boston.
