Join us for Friday morning bike rides into Boston this summer!

The 2014 bicycle commuter convoys from Melrose, Malden, and Everett into downtown Boston will be held the mornings of May 9, June 27, July 18, and August 29.

If you have any questions about the Melrose/Malden/Everett convoy, email Steve Leibman at sleibman@alum.mit.edu


Riders can join us at any of the following designated stops:
  • Depart at 7:00 am (arrive by 6:50) from the northeast corner of Main St and Foster St in Melrose (at the bike racks in front of the YMCA).
  • 7:15 am in Malden at the intersection of Main Street and the Northern Strand Trail 
  • 7:25 am in Everett in the McDonald's parking lot at the intersection of Route 99 and Beacham St.
Why join us?
  • Enjoy the benefits of a group of fellow bicyclists looking out for each other on the road into Boston
