Just thought I'd share a pretty bit of Bedford I get to see twice a day, once in each direction.

What's your usual route? I'd have thought you go straight up the Middlesex Turnpike (3A). BTW, that big hill at the corner of 3 & 128? I grew up there.

3A is actually Boston (Post) Road, not the Middlesex Turnpike. (resident of Billerica)

Which becomes Rte. 3 as it passes (in the inbound direction) under 128.
I love the roads around here.

I know, weird huh? The roads around here confounded me for *years* :-)

Speaking of which, they're repaving a stretch of 129 in Wilmington. How's the bike?

Middlesex Turnpike on a bicycle? No thank you.

From my house, the shortest way is Mass Ave to Lowell St to Middlesex Turnpike. The bits in Lexington and Bedford are quite nice. The bits in Arlington and Billerica are OK. It's really only the bits in Burlington that are no fun. Still, it's more of a commute and less of a pleasant bike ride than the Minuteman to Springs Rd, and so I take the scenic route even though the direct route saves 5 minutes.
