Scenery

Forests, farms, and a honking big Reservoir. Lovely tiny town centers, and some of the best farmland to be seen near Boston.

Drive Enjoyment

Clinton's streets are not great, but the town center is a nice stop to stretch. Otherwise road quality is good, with mostly one lane roads, and little traffic.

Tourism Opportunities

- Harvard Center is a postcard.

- Stop at Bolton Orchards, at the intersection of 117, and 110S. Lot's of goodies to eat.

Both my wife and I ride 1983 R80RT Beemers. In Sterling on RT140 there is the 140 Rendezvous Pub. They have great burgers and weather permitting a rib and chick BBQ on Wednesday eveing and on Sunday afternoon. They also have entertainment on Sundays 4:00 - 8:00, country/rock. For those might want to ride up Mt. Wachusett be aware that the road is now closed for the summer until Oct 2009 due toroad construction.
