Ride with The Bourne Rail TRAIL Blazers in the

2026 Buzzards Bay Watershed Ride

Join us!

Join the Rail Trail Blazers team as they bike for clean water through the SE coast of Massachusetts. The 20th Annual Buzzards Bay Watershed Ride is on Sunday, October 4, 2026. Enjoy the scenic landscapes of the South Coast and Upper Cape while raising funds for clean water in Buzzards Bay. This year includes a new 20 mile ride!

With 100, 41, and 20 mile route options, this fully supported ride winds through farmland, villages, cityscapes, cranberry bogs, and coastal country backroads, and ends in Woods Hole overlooking beautiful Buzzards Bay.

The ride is a fantastic community event that raises funds for a great cause: clean water in Buzzards Bay.
