Description

**IMPORTANT FOR NEW VOLUNTEERS: Before registering to volunteer on any Waypoint Adventure program, complete our general volunteer registration HERE. Then, you may review our program calendar and sign up to volunteer on specific programs.**

Join Waypoint Adventure's Tandem Cycling Program for a ride at  Lake Cochituate State Park . The group will meet in the parking lot adjacient to the beach (look for the branded Waypoint truck pulling a big trailer).  43 Commonwealth Road, Natick, MA

We have a variety of adaptive tandem bikes that offer different levels of support. Participants will be matched up in pairs - a Captain who leads and a Stoker who works with the Captain to enjoy the ride. Some bikes are traditional upright tandems requiring teamwork and balance. Others are recumbent (low to the ground) with two wheels for more balance or three wheels and supportive seats for added stability.

We are also seeking volunteers to ride solo upright bikes and serve as safety cyclers. These volunteers will help manage road crossings and provide general support to the group along the trail. We will develop some confidence in the parking lot, and then set out to ride 4-7 miles along a flat rail trail.

Your Instructors: Harrison (617-299-0491)

Conditions: The ride will take place on the paved Cochituate Rail Trail. The terrain is generally flat with a mix of sunny and shady areas. There may be a few road crossings.

Bathrooms: On site

What to Bring:

  • Helmet (we will have some available to borrow)
  • A bike (if you have one - not mandatory)
  • Water bottle
  • Small backpack
  • Wear sneakers!
  • Sunscreen
  • Snacks/Lunch

Be prepared to cycle, socialize, help out, and work together to explore this scenic rail trail! We'll stop for snacks and breaks along the way.
