Cape Cod Bridges and Bays
Posted by John Sullivan | Tags: Cheap , Massachusetts , Routes & Rides
To feed the monster -- the need to tour, that is -- Saturday morning Brandon and I will leave Fairhaven, Massachusetts, for the back road journey to the Cape Cod Canal. We will cross the Bourne Bridge, ride the cape side of the canal to Sandwich, and tent camp at Shawme Crowell State Forest. We were going to go Friday, but I have my high school reunion that evening.

While I’m relatively new to bike touring -- I’ve now got three trips under my belt, with the longest at five days -- I consider myself a pretty adventurous biker.

I was pleased that she agreed.

First, I came up with a tour. Next, I invited some buddies to come along. Then, I worried.

After years of research, I had pieced together enough of their route to create a four-day bike tour.
