New England Shore Trek Begins with Short Ride Through Connecticut


The 8 a.m. meeting in Manhattan's Bryant Park was followed by a brief walk to Grand Central Terminal where the Trekkers loaded their bicycles and gear onto a Metro North commuter train heading for New Haven.  Meeting additional Trekkers in Guilford, CT the entire group was now together to begin their journey through Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts' Cape Cod. Today they will have a short ride to Hammonasset State Park & Beach.  Over the next 16 days the group will cycle and visit Mystic Seaport,  ferry to Block Island's grand lighthouses, visit the mansions in Newport, enjoy the City of Providence, cycle the length of Cape Cod to Provincetown, and end with a grand day in Boston.
