Bicycles became a way to get around town as soon as they were introduced in the 1800s. Early proposals for bike paths to connect to the rest of Cape Cod date back to 1899. Ever since, bicycles have become an integral part of the town’s persona. You can get everywhere in town on a bicycle (even the airport is on the bike trail and has a bike rack), and bicycles are allowed on all roads in town. When the Cape Cod National Seashore was established in the 1960s, bicycle access was made a priority. In 1967, the Province Lands Bike Trail debuted as the first bike trail in a National Park. The trail is a two-way scenic loop that winds up and down through the spectacular and otherworldly landscape of the Province Lands dunes. In 1978, the state established its first designated bike route, MA-1, 125 miles from Boston to Provincetown. The route was named the Claire Saltonstall Memorial Bikeway in memory of the young woman who was killed by a motor vehicle while riding her bike in 1974. The Cape Cod Commission developed revisions to the route in 2015 for submission to the state.
