I did this ride last year, and won't be doing it again. Unfortunately a very large amount of the route is on narrow urban bike/pedestrian paths, really not suitable for group riding. One section led us over a narrow, pedestrian-only boardwalk that was half fallen into the water of Jamaica Pond. I found it quite scary.
It's unfortunate, because there is excellent road riding in the vicinity of the Larz Anderson, if you head southwest through Brookline, Dedham, Newton, but this ride chose to head into the urban congestion of Boston and Cambridge.
