MATTAPOISETT 50
THE FLATTEST AND FASTEST 50 MILES YOU WILL EVER RIDE
This is Narragansett Bay Wheelmen Ride no. 52. NBW has graciously given us permission to use this route in the past.
According to NBW's notes, "Designed by Bill and Sandy McIlmail, it is a very flat ride through the cranberry growing region of southeastern Mass . . . Mattapoisett is a picturesque town with a lovely waterfront. Rochester is a stately New England town with its church and green. Carver is the home of the popular King Richard's Medieval Faire . . ." This is probably going to be your fastest 50-mile ride of the season. There is also a shorter 30-mile option. Thank you, NBW, for arrowing the ride!
Find a few friends and break your records.
