RI after-work ride Thu or Fri


My weekend is shot, so I wanted to get a quality ride in sometime Thursday or Friday.

Thinking of heading to MM Thursday, never been but heard it is worth checking out...? Maybe head towards CT on some good back roads?

I am a safe/sane, 2nd year rider looking to do (ironically enough) a safe & sane ride.

Can leave as early as 5ish, can ride until the cows come home. Logging >=150 miles would be a plus.

Judging by what I saw last weekend, a lot of them left the Complex at last call, but they might have gone out to eat before going home.

Cam, I got home about an hour earlier than that. I dont think Thayer St is as good as advertised by the way.

Cool to see you for a few minutes

Wow its great to see so much interest on a weekday ride.

I should say that I am not too familiar with the roads here, I have this loop I was doing where I go up 295, on to industrial road, then theres some road (106?) that goes across a pond/reservoir, and just wander from there. I think it brings me to Route 6 at some point.

Think of me more as an eager riding partner and less like I know where I'm going.

Thursday I will be heading to MM on back roads and up for riding after hanging out for a little bit at MM, possibly a ride to get dinner somewhere after MM..

Leaving @ 5 from Framingham roughly.. I can alter my plans if anyone is interested to join.

As it turns out my plans for tomorrow call for me leaving Providence and ending up in Salem MA. Going to MM makes more sense for me now than riding west into CT.

I can (hopefully) bail from Providence no later than 4:30, any idea on how quickly I could get up to Framingham? Not sure if it's cutting it too close or not.

If anyone in RI wanted to find a way to MM that works too...

if you are talking about the reservoir in Scituate RI, try riding on Rt 12, Rt14 thats a nice little loop. Although it is short
