That is the last printing, the state says they ran out of money. There have been some changes. The Washington Secondary path is longer and better condition. The same for the William C. O'Neill path at the eastern end. The only changes are just that some of them are longer. Nothing you really need a map for.
Off of the East Bay Bike Path, Colt state park in Bristol, has some new paths.
If you can, Go to Martha's Vineyard island in Massachusetts and ride around the island, there is a good bike path map on the internet some where. Leave the car behind and just take the bike over on the ferry. Go on a week day to prevent huge crowds on the paths.
