Written Directions

- Start in Marlborough, MA and take Rt 20 west through Auburn, MA.

- Continue to Oxford, MA where you want to get on Rt 12 heading south.

Scenery

This route brings you from forests, to farmland, to the shore. Mostly along roads without much traffic; though to cut back on road time, look at my alternate start.

Drive Enjoyment

Mostly on one lanes, and mostly in the country, this ride route is long, but easy on your butt, and nerves. Except, near Newport, if you choose to go there.

Tourism Opportunities

It's all country riding, until you get along the shoreline, where there's beaches to stop at. You go through enough towns to find gas, snacks, and bathrooms. This is mostly a ride for the riding pleasure, not really for destinations. The Narragansett shoreline is nice, but may be congested in the summer.

Basically did this ride last summer. Was in Narragansett for a wedding and made a pit stop in stonington,CT to see a friend on my way back to Westborough,MA

49 was my favorite part of the route. Very nice scenery on a summer day.

Also RT 1 in RI is a pretty nice ride. Although it has a few lights closer to westerly area plenty of other twisty roads to head north on.

Excellent choice !

We're gonna try this route this weekend. Just attached a gps to the bike, so we should have a much easier time getting from checkpoint to checkpoint. We'll let you know how the ride goes.
