Re: Whats the best roads to ride near somerville?

south border rd and woodland rd
fellsway west ma - Google Maps

within 10-15 minutes, rediculously short, and congested anywhere near rush hour.

gotta head north or west about an hour-45 minutes for better roads. I like north into NH. not sure of the exact roads. i usually just look for something on google maps and go exploring till i get tired. haven't ventured into NH yet this season because of the weather and road conditions. Moto Market in Acton is probably only 15-20 minutes away and I was shown some fun roads out that way, but again, they are very short.

Yeah, it sucks when you finish around 4-5 pm. Traffic is pretty bad to all directions at that time. Anyway, there's always bunch of cars in city all the time. But I do have a little route that I'd go ride sometimes after work. Fellsway-S.Border rd.- some rd. in Stoneham- Fellsway.

Be carefull on border road. You'll get either a leo in one of the hiking turn offs or some soccer mom pulling out on that road.
