Biking the Bay Circuit Trail - Ashland to Medfield (Day 7)

I did this ride in October 2023 but didn't take any photos nor did I care to write a ride report. There is a ride summary below and cumulative milage and elevation totals for my all my rides to date. This was the most difficult section on the BCT so far, mainly due to the difficult terrain and steep climb up to King Phillips Overlook in Rocky Narrows.
