Max,
do they have good bike trails in mass? Ct trails are pretty ordinary.
How many miles do you ride on average?
What kind of bike?

yes they do have great bike trails. old railway tracks converted to bike trails. they are quite picturesque but i only ride them when i'm out with the family since they are quite flat.  i live in an old new england town with little ponds and farms with long country roads with lots of hills.  i try to ride in summer and fall at an average of four times a week. my rides depending on availability of time range from 9 to 20 miles. i probably average 12 miles a ride based on my cyclemeter iphone app.  since the family decided they don't want to travel for labor day, i'll be hitting the bike a lot this weekend. i have a very basic hybrid bike -- trek 7.3 or something. since i'm riding quite a bit this year, i'm thinking of putting down some serious money for a good road bike next summer. may do it at the end of the season this year if there is a good bike sale.

you are going to get hemorrhoids and other unknown dysfunctional issues...at this rate (not to mention the undue shear stresses to your posterior lateral region of your medial meniscus in your right knee.)

i only took these two on my phone and they aren't much. sights further into the ride were far nicer. i'm going to take better pics in fall of the same route.

Unrelated new development: XH kept on staring at me in my gym like clothes and kept asking if I have lost weight. I shook my head with a, 'not really'. He would not take that answer, and asked if I am even checking out myself on the scales. I said, "yeah I lost about 5-7 lbs, but it's not a lot given how much I need to lose overall", and, "that itself was a quickly gained 7 lbs so doesn't mean much". But he kept staring in my general midriff-waist area and kept saying it's a lot to have lost in 6-8 weeks, and looking good, and so on. I kept shaking my head, refusing to take the compliment. Felt sorta uncomfortable too.
