CAMBRIDGE BIKE SAFETY COMMUNITY RIDES
55+ Community Bike Rides in Cambridge & Somerville
Social group rides designed with riders 55+ in mind — and open to everyone.
Our July ride traveled from Harvard Square to Jamaica Plain along the Charles River and Emerald Necklace paths, followed by lunch at Casa Verde.
Ride with us
We organize relaxed community bike rides around Cambridge, Somerville, Boston, and nearby communities. The rides are especially intended to make it easy for people 55 and older to meet other riders and enjoy biking together.
We have been riding about once a month and would love to organize more rides as the group grows.
What our rides are like
These are social rides, not training rides. We choose routes and destinations that make it enjoyable to spend a few hours riding together.
Comfortable pace
We ride at a pace that allows the group to stay together rather than trying to cover ground quickly.
Lower-stress routes
When practical, rides use paths, protected bike lanes, and calmer streets rather than high-stress roads.
Interesting destinations
Past rides have included the Charles River, Emerald Necklace, Arnold Arboretum, Jamaica Plain, and other destinations around Greater Boston.
Details before every ride
We share the planned distance, route, meeting location, and other useful information ahead of time so you can decide whether a ride works for you.
Help us organize more rides
We would like to ride more often. Join the list if you want to hear about upcoming rides, suggest a destination, or help plan or lead a future trip.
