Our fully supported tour takes cyclists from wide open farm fields, past stunning overlooks of our lakes, to cavernous water-carved gorges. You’ll also enjoy an area of the country that’s rich with National Historic Sites as well as award winning wineries.
The Long Route appeals to those riders who love the challenge of a 65-75 mile ride per day at a pace that’s typically quicker than most.

The River Valley Ice Cream Ride blends the best of summertime fun - bikes and ice cream! Whether you're a daily cyclist or only get your bike out a few times a year, this ride has options for you. It's a great event to bring the whole family to with an off-road bike path option that young families can enjoy.
The Ice Cream Ride offers three routes:
- The Kiddie Scoop Loop, five (5) miles along the Canal Side Rail Trail in beautiful Turners Falls, MA.
- The Single Scoop Loop, twenty five (25) miles through Connecticut River Valley towns of Montague, Sunderland and Deerfield, Massachusetts.
- The Double Scoop Loop, fifty (50) miles which adds gorgeous riding in Bernardston, Gill and Northfield, MA to the Single Scoop Loop above.
Along the way, riders will gain some insights into the importance and value of local food production here in the Valley. And what local food is more fun than ice cream!? We'll visit a Valley dairy farm, meet some of the hard-working cows (and their farmers) and stop by a little shop for ice cream that's produced right here in our communities. Riders then continue back to the start for music, food and more ICE CREAM.

- What do you think of when you go for a ride? What do you think of when looking for a tour? We think it’s more than just going from point A to point B. We think it’s about scenic, well-marked routes through quaint New England towns, farms and forests, lakes and rivers. We think it’s also about smelling the flowers, lingering at lunch, eating ice cream, making new friends, taking a plunge into a pond, buying fruit from a farm, watching a sunset, pedaling at your own pace, climbing a mountain if you want, recharging, rekindling and chasing a dream. Welcome To Cycle Massachusetts.
With experience dating back to 2007, we are dedicated to differentiating ourselves from other tours. Over the years, we have tweaked and tinkered, added and adjusted, and are proud to call ourselves “The Friendliest Rides in the East”.

Along the way, cyclists will have time to tour world class Oregon wineries, play on beautiful Pacific beaches, learn about the area’s long, rich history and all while staying in several small, quiet communities whose economies are based on logging, fishing, farming and viticulture.

The Great Big FANY Ride
Bike 500 miles Across New York from Niagara Falls to Saratoga Springs on back roads that will make your skinny tires sing and your soul soar. Upstate New York is so completely different than the city called "The Big Apple;" we ride past cherry orchards, Amish pie stands and vineyards slowly ripening grapes in the summer sun. We climb at least 20,000' during the week to catch breathtaking views overlooking lush green valleys dotted with red barns, and follow the shorelines of pristine lakes. We're often on roads so rural they don't even have a painted line, and stop lights are miles and miles apart. We don't have scheduled snack stops serving fig newtons in the middle of a field. Instead, we encourage you to support the small Mom & Pop stores in the tiny towns we bike through. Don't worry about finding enough to eat or drink; our cue sheets are like travel-logs and the shop keepers will know you're coming through. It's 7 challenging days that you'll smile about for a long, long time when you're sitting back at the office. Come earn your bragging rights & make new friends with other independent-minded bikers. Camping with gear support included. Hotel option and ComfyCamper.info options available.

Family Fun, Colorado
Quality time together on this low stress, high energy event through Colorado’s ski country promises an abundance of fun, great cycling, and opportunities for bonding between you and your child. We’ll enjoy the mountain terrain of central Colorado, pedaling mostly on paved, car-free pathways that provide non-stop views of the spectacular Rockies in the summery surroundings of ski areas such as Breckenridge and Vail. Your gear will be carried for you and your meals catered — and the daily distances will be shorter than on many of our tours, allowing time for lingering in small towns, alongside rushing streams, or on a mountain pass.
Beyond the great cycling and good eating, you can enjoy such activities as a mountain gondola ride, river rafting, and alpine hikes. Appropriately, we’ll cap the trip with a long descent along the Colorado River to Glenwood Springs followed by a relaxing soak in the world’s largest hot-spring pool. Come join us for an unhurried bicycle-travel experience. Perfect for beginners or veteran cyclists who want to relax.
Please note: In order to participate in our Family Fun tours, adults must be accompanied by a child and children must be accompanied by an adult.
