Bike ride in RI - E Providence to Bristol

RAIN CANCELS THIS EVENT
NO GUEST PLEASE
This is my eleventh annual event for this ride!

East Bay Bike Path: Rhode Island's best-known rail-trail, the Bicycle Path hugs the shores of Narragansett Bay, from Bristol in the south and north to India Point Park in Providence. The 14-mile paved path accommodates a wide variety of users.
The trail takes you through an alternating landscape of stunning natural areas, as well as more urban enclaves. Spur trails lead to several parks and conservation areas, including Colt State Park in Bristol, Burr's Hill Park in Warren and Veterans Memorial Park and Haines Memorial State Park in Barrington.
We will meet at 11:00 am at the first parking area for Veterans Memorial Parkway. TRAVELING EAST ON I-195, TAKE THE RIVERSIDE EXIT. Should the first parking area be full, I will go to the second lot. Look for my white Toyota or the meetup sign.

We will eat lunch on our own. Then we will browse some of the shops in the downtown area.
We will plan on leaving Bristol around 3:00 pm, to head back to E Providence.

For the bike ride you should dress in layers. Bring plenty of fluids and snacks. Sun lotion, helmets, etc. Also, it’s a good idea to have a spare tire in the chance you get a flat on the path.
