Re: [MA] Free Coffee in Boston 5/13

I think I see what you mean, but the tracks you're referring to aren't T tracks. I believe they're a disused rail line, some of which has been paved over and turned into a rail trail. I've ridden the bike trail from the Cedar Street end in Somerville all the way out to the Bedford end and back quite a few times, and I can say with some confidence that the T tracks don't become the bike trail at Alewife. In fact, the segment of the bike path between Mass. Ave. and Alewife just kind of dumps you off in the plaza outside the station, and you have to figure out to ride through, ride up route 3 for a short way, and then pick up the trail again where it heads into Arlington. I wish it were as straightforward as it appears on that map.
