Overview

Join the Universal Access Program for accessible tandem cycling on the Lower Neponset River Trail in Boston! During this program, run by our partner Waypoint Adventure, small groups work together to cycle the back roads and bike paths of Massachusetts. Participants are encouraged to bring lunch and socialize on the trail and during breaks.
We have a variety of bikes that offer different amounts of support. We will match up two riders (a Captain and a Stoker). The Captain will be the leader, and the Stoker is the other half of the team, who works with the Captain to enjoy the adventure of tandem cycling. Some of our bikes are more traditional upright bicycles that require teamwork and balance. We also have other models that are side-by-side or recumbent, low to the ground tandems. Some have two wheels and require more balance while others are quite sturdy with three wheels and supportive seats.
Space is limited and pre-registration is required. Registration ends September 17, 2025.
Day and Time: Friday, September 19, 2025; 10 a.m.–12:30 p.m.
Meet At: Neponset River Trail Parking, Pope John Paul ll Park; Turn right just after Neponset Circle Shopping Center at 757 Gallivan Boulevard, Boston MA 02122
