The cool weather that greeted us on this ride was a welcome relief from the oppressive heat earlier in the week. We had a large group of 18 who met at the trailhead in Woonsocket to bike about 10 miles to Cumberland RI. This is a beautiful scenic trail which parallels not only the Blackstone River but also an active railroad utilised by the Providence & Worcester Railroad.
We passed two dams, bridges, an old barn with picnic tables, a large recreational area but amazingly enough no coffee shops!
Well what's a Gang bike ride without a coffee stop? When we returned to our starting point most of us went off to the nearby Coffee Connection while a couple of others had ventured off trail in Cumberland to another coffee shop.
