If you love bicycling and history, please join us for a new historic bike tour around Falmouth on Friday, June 5th.Museum docent and tour guide Scott Wayne will lead a small pack of cyclists on a route that loops from the Village Green, down to Woods Hole’s Penzance Point, and back again.The bike path opened in 1975-1976 and was funded partly by the Massachusetts Bicentennial Commission. Its dedication in 1976 was considered to be part of Falmouth's official U.S. Bicentennial celebration.This unique tour will retrace the route taken by Falmouth citizens in September 1930. In that year, Massachusetts was celebrating its 300th birthday, and each town placed markers at its own most cherished historic sites. Falmouth residents made a solemn procession to nine locations, unveiling memorial plaques at each stop. They traveled on foot and by motorcar, and no doubt a few hardy souls joined the parade on their bicycles!These historic markers have stood for 95 years. You may have been passing them by for years without even noticing them. Some locations, like the Village Green, you can probably guess. Others may be news to you. (Ever heard of General Swift’s birthplace?) Our bike tour will stop at each location, where Scott will explain its significance and show vintage photos. Counting the time spent at these stops, the tour should take about three hours.WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOWThe ride covers about 11 miles, of which 7 are on the bike path and 4 on streets.Bring your own bike, helmet, water, etc.No fully electric bikes; pedal-assisted okayParticipants must be 16 or olderParticipants must sign a liability waiverLimit of 8 participantsNo rain date; if canceled for weather your money will be refundedTour is 3 hours$25 Non-Members / $15 Museums on the Green Members - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/falmouth/pedal-through-the-past-a-bike-tour-with-the-falmouth-historical-society/100001989106857155 - **Event Categories**: cycling, parades - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 16.64, max: 26.93, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Falmouth - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: Falmouth Historical Society - **lat**: 41.5553718 - **long**: -70.61966939999999 - **full address**: Falmouth Historical Society, 55 Palmer Avenue, Falmouth, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Pedal Through the Past: A Bike Tour with the Falmouth Historical Society - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/0e0cfb0d28123fee58fc4062563a0dc4d00cdfd3685ef97b2e04c00b721f867a-rimg-w768-h648-dceee0db-gmir.jpg?v=1778297979 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Pedal Through the Past: A Bike Tour with the Falmouth Historical Society being held? - **A:** Pedal Through the Past: A Bike Tour with the Falmouth Historical Society takes place on Fri, 05 Jun, 2026 at 01:30 pm to Fri, 05 Jun, 2026 at 04:30 pm at Falmouth Historical Society, 55 Palmer Avenue, Falmouth, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Pedal Through the Past: A Bike Tour with the Falmouth Historical Society? - **A:** Pedal Through the Past: A Bike Tour with the Falmouth Historical Society is organized by Falmouth Museums on the Green. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Pedal Through the Past: A Bike Tour with the Falmouth Historical Society", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/0e0cfb0d28123fee58fc4062563a0dc4d00cdfd3685ef97b2e04c00b721f867a-rimg-w768-h648-dceee0db-gmir.jpg?v=1778297979", "startDate": "2026-06-05T13:30:00-04:00", "endDate": "2026-06-05T16:30:00-04:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/falmouth/pedal-through-the-past-a-bike-tour-with-the-falmouth-historical-society/100001989106857155", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Falmouth Historical Society", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "55 Palmer Avenue", "postalCode": "02540", "addressLocality": "Falmouth", "addressRegion": "MA", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "41.5553718", "longitude": "-70.61966939999999" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "If you love bicycling and history, please join us for a new historic bike tour around Falmouth on Friday, June 5th.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-05-09", "availabilityEnds": "2026-06-05T16:30:00-04:00", "validFrom": "2026-05-09", "lowPrice": "16.64", "highPrice": "26.93", "price": "16.64", "url": "https://allevents.in/falmouth/pedal-through-the-past-a-bike-tour-with-the-falmouth-historical-society/100001989106857155" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-05-09", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-05-09", "url": "https://allevents.in/falmouth/pedal-through-the-past-a-bike-tour-with-the-falmouth-historical-society/100001989106857155", "price": "26.93", "name": "General Admission" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-05-09", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-05-09", "url": "https://allevents.in/falmouth/pedal-through-the-past-a-bike-tour-with-the-falmouth-historical-society/100001989106857155", "price": "16.64", "name": "Museums on the Green Members" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Falmouth Museums on the Green", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/falmouth-museums-on-the-green/17792629", "description": "The Falmouth Museums on the Green, owned and operated by the Falmouth Historical Society, is a two-acre campus that has been serving the residents and visitors of Falmouth since 1900.
