  1. yea, i'm that annoying new guy that doesn't know anyone or anything.
    with that cleared up....
    where are the Boston area unicyclists? i've lived here since
    July and i've only seen one.
    are there any groups? scheduled rides?
    if there is no group, then it's time to start one!
    I live in JP, and would love to have someone else to ride with.
    feel free to email me if you're in the area.
    [email hidden]

    good to meet you all!
    -Sean

  3. I live in Needham, about 30 minutes from down town Boston. I'd like to
    join a group ride. Thoughts on two possible places: Charles river bike
    path, or MinuteMan bike path.

  4. I live in Easton which is about 30 minutes from downtown Boston. Another
    location that is decent is Pope John Paul Park located just off of the
    expressway into Boston. You can see it from the highway. Lets ride.

  5. Here are some websites that describe these these bike paths
    'Charles River/Dudley White bike path'
    (http://www.mass.gov/mdc/CHARLESR.HTM)

    'Minute Man Bike Path' (http://www.massbike.org/bikeways/indexmm.htm)

    'Pope John Paul II Park' (http://www.mass.gov/mdc/pjp.htm)

    Any thoughts on accessibility and parking for these possibilities.

    Any other ideas for locals?

  6. There are several large parking lots right at Pope John Paul park. Free
    parking, no meters. The park is very easy to get to by car. There is a
    playground for the kids, Long paved paths. Some hilly areas also. The
    park is very popular for flying kites on breezy days.

    Ok, I am now officially in my normal state of -advanced- confusion.
    Don't try to confuse me, it won't make any difference.

    completely self-organizing activity.

    Hi Duane,

    Is there a particular landmark in the park where we should meet? Like a
    parking lot, building, monument etc?

    Regards,

  15. Perhaps I'm getting a head of myself, but if all goes well, maybe this
    could be a monthly thing? I have been aching for some people to ride
    with...

    There are 2 parking lots at the park. The main lot, which is the largest
    has playground equipment on the right as you enter the parking lot area.
    From here, drive to the left and park in this large parking lot. I
    usually park at the far end of this lot. I hope that this makes sense.
