Hi John, I'm in Bristol at the lower end of the E. Bay Bike Path. I ride the bike path quite a bit since it is nearly outside my door. I have been riding almost every Sunday with the Narragansett Bay Wheelmen. This coming Sunday the club has a ride beginning at the Lincoln Mall with options for three distances. https://www.nbwclub.org/ It is not necessary to be a member to join a ride. Maybe we can get together for a ride. I ride from 10 to 60 miles but I'm slow.

well yea i usually ride the east bay bike path, nice and scenic. I ride from riverside all the way down to down town Bristol.
i'm not so sure if i'm going to be so available this weekend, but if so, I'll be riding.
I don't know what do you mean by slow, I usually keep a steady pace. I am by far not breaking any records or trying to set any time with the bike i have now. just basically recreation riding
but i took a quick glance at the website you linked me to.
looks really good and interesting but at the moment i'm not sure if I can make any commitment to riding every Sunday.
but I'll keep you posted on here.
