Cumulative Distance Where Notes Direction Elevation
0.52km 0.52km Cambridge This left turn is somewhat annoying, as cars seldom stop for you. But traffic on both sides of the road moves slowly, and it's 2 lanes each way, so waiting is not problematic. WSW 241° 2m
1.88km 1.36km There is a road here, now. WNW 284° 5m
2.06km 0.18km I suggest leaving the road here, to walk across the crosswalk at the onramp for Memorial Drive (but I'm usually pulling a trailer, which makes merging with rotary traffic difficult). W 251° 5m
2.14km 0.08km Crosswalk NW 302° 5m
3.95km 1.81km Use crosswalk to make left turn onto Memorial Drive, then immediate right. NNW 320° 3m
4.11km 0.16km Take the lane on Plympton, since it's narrow and there is parking on both sides. NNE 22° 4m
4.23km 0.12km Careful with the multiple intersections here. NNE 21° 5m
4.83km 0.6km Overpass NNW 320° 7m
5.88km 1.05km Take the lane here when cars are parked by the side of the road. NNW 359° 5m
6.05km 0.17km Left turn here can be tricky. Watch for traffic from the right. NNW 356° 8m
6.17km 0.13km Safe to go through light when there's a walk signal. NW 306° 8m
6.43km 0.26km Road narrows here, and often cars parked on the side of the road interfere. When pulling the trailer, I sometimes hop up onto the sidewalk. NW 311° 6m
6.5km 0.07km When turning onto Massachusetts Avenue, be very careful that cars also turning right in adjacent lane can't drift over too far to the right and hit you. NNW 327° 6m
6.79km 0.29km Drivers often stop to let bikers take this left. NNW 327° 10m
6.9km 0.11km Watch for drivers crossing Elm from Beech. They sometimes don't check for cyclists. NE 28° 8m
7.31km 0.41km Narrow area, with parked cars. Take the lane. NE 29° 10m
7.38km 0.07km Left onto bike path. WNW 290° 10m
7.73km 0.35km Careful in this parking lot. (Map is a little inaccurate.) WNW 291° 6m
7.89km 0.17km Somerville NNE 16° 7m
8.02km 0.13km Take the lane NE 33° 7m
8.15km 0.13km Turn left at big church. NW 309° 10m
8.83km 0.68km Great hill when pulling a trailer (if not up for a big hill, take Broadway to Packard instead). NW 302° 19m
9.4km 0.56km Watch for traffic from the right. They often come fast after the light at Powderhouse turns green. NNE 14° 21m
9.84km 0.45km NW 297° 10m
