The South Coast Bikeway Alliance, in cooperation with the Buzzards Bay Coalition and the Fairhaven Bikeway Committee, will host a Bike and Hike event on Saturday, May 13.

This free, family-friendly event is part of Bay State Bike Week which is sponsored by MassBike, MassDOT, and Mass Rides.

The ride offers two starting points. For a 20 mile round-trip bike ride, cyclists will meet at Fort Taber in New Bedford. Those who desire a shorter journey can start at Ft. Phoenix in Fairhaven for a seven-mile route.

All cyclists will ride to the Shaw Farm Trail located on the Phoenix Rail Trail at Shaw Road. Buzzards Bay Coalition members will lead a hike down to the shore for a four-mile round trip walk. All cyclists will return to the starting points. Those who wish to hike only may do so.
