Interesting idea! It looks like there are bike lanes the whole way (or bikes can take the lane). That prevents me from having to ride the entire distance. I also don't need to worry about ownership and I could easily take the bus if the weather is lousy. I wonder about vehicle availability, but a quick glance says there are multiple stations within a few blocks of both start and end points.
I wonder how that would compare to an electric kick scooter. The benefit of the scooter is that I can use it to get to/from Oak Grove and less chance of getting sweaty.

Are there bike lanes on Cambridge Street to Washington Street? I remember that there are through Union Square but not sure about the roads leading up to it.

Funnily enough Google suggested the 91 from Sullivan. I wonder if it's the specific time I told it to arrive.

Close enough - on Main at the other end of Portland.

I considered it. It'd be 45 mins each way. I'm not sure what the shower situation is or I'd need an e bike so I don't sweat. The main reason why not is that 28 scares the crap out of me and the northern strand path goes too far east. If 28 had a separated bike lane, I'd be all for trying.

Where specifically? Looks like the kind of place I'd want to come back to as the colors change.
