It was a beautiful ride, I started at the sandwich side recreational park and headed south toward the train bridge. There&#8217;s a surprising amount of elevation for a trail that runs directly next to a canal for seven miles. I swear I&#8217;ve run and walked along both sides for several miles but never gone the distance. And even though <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sandwichmass.org\/\">Sandwich<\/a> is named for the Earl of Sandwich, I think, coincidentally there&#8217;s a good number of sandwich shops near the canal recreation area. You can get a scenic workout in and then get a <a href=\"https:\/\/familydestinationsguide.com\/best-restaurants-in-sandwich-ma\/\">great meal<\/a>, or pick something up and sit at one of the many picnic tables there. As long as the wind isn&#8217;t too strong you won&#8217;t lose the whole meal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yelp.com\/map\/sandwich-recreation-area-sandwich\">Canal Service Rd<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sandwich, MA 02563<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Naukabout brewing Co. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although it&#8217;s in the next town, Mashpee, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naukabout.com\/brewery\">Naukabout<\/a> is where I ended up going after getting my cycle on at the canal. I was sweaty and needed the dip in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/files\/documents\/2018\/02\/20\/mashp_wakeby.pdf\">Wakeby lake<\/a> before changing clothes and getting a few good craft beers. It&#8217;s a very cool brewery but I&#8217;m noticing a trend in New England where the breweries typically only stay open until nine PM at the latest. I don&#8217;t know if this has something to do with particular state or local laws, but I&#8217;d certainly like to stay a little later sometimes. Regardless it was a good time, there was no food truck there that night so I had to go to another place for pizza afterward. Still totally worth it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bing.com\/ck\/a?!&amp;&amp;p=5ddb61fcb94ef3a3JmltdHM9MTY2MzQ1OTIwMCZpZ3VpZD0zY2QzZGNhYi00ODUwLTZiNGMtMmRkNy1jZDQ0NDk4ODZhOTgmaW5zaWQ9NTQ2Ng&amp;ptn=3&amp;hsh=3&amp;fclid=3cd3dcab-4850-6b4c-2dd7-cd4449886a98&amp;u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9uYXVrYWJvdXQuY29tL2NvbnRhY3Q&amp;ntb=1\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Naukabout Brewery<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>naukabout.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bing.com\/local?lid=YN873x3759942403994882348&amp;id=YN873x3759942403994882348&amp;q=Naukabout+Brewery&amp;name=Naukabout+Brewery&amp;cp=41.6500358581543%7e-70.48411560058594&amp;ppois=41.6500358581543_-70.48411560058594_Naukabout+Brewery\">13 Lake Ave, Mashpee, MA 02649<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I must have taken the Canal trail for granted while growing up because I was in my forties the first time I rode the entire trail on a bicycle.
