I'm hoping for an average of 27.9mph (if you count the car sections getting there
).
I'm hoping to go from Waltham. It will be about a 2hr ride to New London, NH. I can probably take you up if you don't mind a slight detour. My wife and are considering that I drop her off at the northern end of the Nashua River Rail Trail in Dunstable and she can walk down to Ayer while I head up to New London.
If any of you can describe how I'd find that end of the N.R.R.T. that would be great. As near as I can tell it is on Hollis St, but it could be on River, or even into NH.
Thanks.
