This ride starts out in Needham, a charming suburb known for its leafy neighborhoods and easygoing vibe. From there, you’ll make your way north and east toward Boston—the historic heart of New England! Most of the route is on paved or asphalt surfaces, with about half of it taking you along dedicated cycleways and quieter roads, so it’s pretty pleasant for riders who like to avoid traffic.

You’ll pass through classic Massachusetts scenery: expect tree-lined streets, some gentle rolling hills, and a good dose of suburban charm. The route covers a bit over 31 kilometers (about 19.5 miles) and you’ll get a moderate workout, with a few ascents and descents but nothing too extreme.

As you roll into Boston, you’ll find yourself in a city that blends colonial history, riverside paths, and vibrant neighborhoods. Grab a coffee in the Back Bay or roll along the Charles River before calling it a day—it’s a great way to experience both suburban calm and big-city excitement all in one ride!
