Was out on the Cape Cod Rail Trail last weekend. I forgot if I posted anything about it. I did a short section from the trail-head in South Dennis to Chatham to meet my folks who drove up from NY. I guess it took about an hour each way. The temps were cool so I wore bike shorts, tights, and wind pants, up top a base layer, fleece, and lime green wind breaker which I zipped the sleeves off of after a while. It was fun to bike to the ocean and eat clams. It was also fun meeting someone by bicycle. I think the stretch from South Dennis to Wellfleet is in better shape though. Can't wait to get back out there!
That sounds awesome! Links? Maps?

Cross the canal, get on Route 6 East
Take exit 9A or 9B whichever goes to Dennis
After about 1/2 mile on the left you'll see a big parking lot and a wooden and white sign for the Cap Cod Rail Trail
There is a bike shop right next to but after the parking lot.
Lots of gas stations and convenience stores nearby, even a Dunkins donuts with a bathroom.
It's a sweet 22 or 24 mile ride to Wellfleet. It takes me about 1 hr 25 min each way
GO GO GO
I don't have any links on this computer sorry
