Safety Tips (provided by the National Park Service):
 
Massachusetts state law requires children 16 and younger to wear protective helmets when operating or riding as a passenger on a bicycle. It is advisable that all riders, regardless of age, wear protective headgear.

If you have an unfamiliar bike, check your brakes, gears and steering before entering a trail

Ride single file and stay to the right. All trails have two-way traffic and heavy traffic times.

Don’t speed, and be alert for the unexpected (rollerbladers, hikers, dogs, windblown sand, etc.).
