27 TOHG members set off on a new adventure - riding rail bikes on an abandoned railroad from Concord NH to Boscawen NH. The Northern Railroad dates back to 1846 but was abandoned a number of years ago which allowed Scenic RailRiders to offer this unique excursion
We pedaled through forests and fields, past a dairy farm, along the Merrimack River and as far as the Hannah Duston Memorial along the river. (Google Hannah Duston to learn her story). At the memorial we reversed course for our return. From there most members journeyed to The Common Man Restaurant in Concord for lunch and conversation.
This was a great experience and we’ll look to repeat this in the future.
