Bike Maps
Hey All,
I am starting to get board with my same old route. (yah I know I could do the route alot and try to make it faster each time, but, I dont wanna!
)
When I ride with my cousin he nknows like every route in this area ++. I have heard of bike maps, and I was wondering which one(s) is good. I live in the Massachussetts area (wayland specifically) Hopefully I will be able to find out some kick ass routes and actually be happy to go out, and not have to do the same ol route. Any help would be appreciated. With this hopefully I can start racking up the miles.
Thanks alot All!

Noticed this thread in Roadbikereviews forums and thought you might like to know about it:

Also, I do think there is a Boston metro area printed bike map out there. I recall reading a reference to it on one of these forums somewhere.
Cheers,

You are very lucky to live in Mass (I am too) because you can buy Rubell's Eastern Massachusetts bike map at any LBS. Routes are color coded in useful ways by actual riders. The one thing to add is that if you hate traffic the light grey routes are some of the best out there, even though the map implies that these are very tertiary routes. Start there, study it, try some routes and you will learn some starting points for making your own routes.
