Unfounded Rumor And Speculation…

Written by Boston Biker on May 31

A little birdie told me that if you have a Hubway membership, a need for speed, and a helmet you might have a good time if you showed up to the Esplanade Hubways/Beacon Street station by the Arthur Fiedler Bridge at 9:15pm” (tonight).

I am not saying there is an underground hubway race…but I am not saying there isnt.

Chirp chirp little birdie, chirp chirp.
