Hi G,
I'd be interested to know where you are going for two days, presumably as a loop out of Metro Boston. FYA, I posted this a few weeks ago about weekend trips out of Boston, to cycle there on Saturday and return on Sunday, from a thread on the Touring Forum:

Right Coast, counterclockwise, such destinations would be:
- Newburyport, MA (did a mutual cycle trip there once)
- Portsmouth, NH
- Nashua, NH
- Lowell, MA
- Worcester, MA
- Providence, RI (did a car weekend trip there)
- Plymouth, MA (one mutual cycle trip there).
One other destination,within the ring of towns listed, is Cape Ann, about 40 miles northof Boston...We bought a second home in a resort town on a nice cycling route 40 miles long north of our condo in downtown Boston. The region is also good for road cycling,and train service with the fully assembled bike is readily available.
