Explore the Cape on quiet back roads. We'll follow the Buzzard's Bay shore to Woods Hole, then on to Falmouth, heading back past ponds and pine woods, finishing with a run along the Cape Cod Canal. We schedule this ride to avoid heavy summer Cape traffic but still get some great fall riding weather. The long ride crosses railroad tracks several times - take care on the acute-angled crossings. After being closed for repairs, the infamous boardwalk crossing on the long loop is no longer included in the ride and the RWGPS route reflects that. Starting in 2026 we have added a 51 mile ride which keeps to the Buzzards Bay side of the Cape.
