The Berkshires to Boston Bicycle Tour is a four-day, 240 mile bike tour showcasing the best of Massachusetts cycling and supporting Massachusetts' statewide bicyclist advocacy organization, MassBike. Beginning in the scenic Berkshire hills along the New York border, the tour meanders through the Connecticut River Valley and spins through the historic communities of Lexington and Concord before arriving in the vibrant capital - Boston. There, riders will join more than 5,000 cycling enthusiasts for Hub on Wheels, Boston's annual bicycling festival. Only 300 spots are available – take advantage of Early Bird pricing and secure your ride!
Early autumn is the ideal time for this ride. Summer's not quite over but the fall colors are beginning to appear across western Massachusetts. The Berkshires to Boston Tour is the perfect New England cycling experience.
This September week is also Massachusetts' "Car Free Week". Recognizing the environmental, financial, community and health benefits of green, sustainable travel options, Massachusetts Car-Free week promotes bicycling as well as walking, transit, teleworking and carpooling. What better way to support the Commonwealth's Car Free Week than by riding a bicycle from one end of the state to the other!
