Shift Roams · Boston · Cambridge
The Sunset Pedal
There's a reason cyclists line up on the Mass Ave Bridge at golden hour. Grab a Bluebike, ride from Central Square across the river to the Esplanade, and park yourself on a bench facing west. Bring a snack. This isn't a workout — it's a mood.
Numbered pins are the roam's stops; gold rings are bonus stops. Check in at each stop in the Shift app to complete the roam.
The stops
Central Square
Esplanade at Mass Ave Bridge
Crossing tip: Stay on the right side of Mass Ave as you enter Boston, then continue to Beacon St (next stoplight). Cross at the crosswalk, reverse direction back toward Cambridge, and take the pull-off over Storrow Drive — it drops you onto the protected Charles River path.
