Ride Description:

An annual tradition. It's a great ride with hundreds of cyclists on the road Sunday night/early Monday morning. Make sure you have lots of lights that will last for several hours.  

The MBTA has become hostile to bikes on the trains so the original premise of the ride has eroded. You'll have to figure out a ride to Hopkinton or ride round trip.

We will not be able to stay together. It will be dark and hard to locate people. It will not be warm so people will want to ride at a pace that is comfortable for them. 

Ride Start Location:

I'll be leaving Newton City Hall at 9:30pm to ride out to Hopkinton.

We'll meet regroup in Hopkinton in front of the Masonic Lodge at 11:00pm to ride into Boston to the finish line.
