Flat roads, wide shoulders, charming waterfront towns, an abundance of peninsulas on the Chesapeake Bay! What’s not to like! Enjoy great cycling and sightseeing on the Eastern Shore. See historic St Michaels, only 4 miles down the road, or take the ferry to Oxford, MD, a 12 mile ride to get there and back. Or choose long distance rides of over 60 miles to explore the tip of Tilghman Island or the backroads of Talbot County.
