Marsh Trail to Plum Island and return

North Shore Bicycling For Fun

Be ready to ride at 11:00 am. High 50’s low 60’s. With the continuation of nice weather days. So let’s ride from the north end of the Marsh trail into Newburyport across the bridge onto the Clipper City trail to Joppa Flats by way of the city center. We will stop at the park headquarters for restroom needs. From there we will go out to Plum Island by way of the road where we will take a break and lunch or snack. Be sure to bring water. We will return on the Clipper city trail passed the railway station, then back over the bridge and onto the Marsh trail to the beginning.

Bike helmets are mandatory when riding with us!

IMPORTANT: Be sure your bike is in good working order! Tires should be in good shape and pumped up, gears should shift smoothly, and your brakes should be properly adjusted. If possible, pack a spare tube in case of a flat. A hand pump or CO2 inflator is also desireable, though not absolutely necessary, as many riders will already have them.
