    Well I'm not from Boston, but there are probably 3,480,567,069 bars in the city of Boston. :D

    Alpine Skiing, the closest good resort is probably Killington Vermont which is about 160 miles away. If you're gonna ski, save money and fly out West if you have time.

    Singletrack . . . A local would need to help you out with that one.

    Boston is full of cool bars, depending on what you like. My favorite ones at the moment are all in Cambridge because it's less touristy & obnoxious.

    Killington has alpine skiing and singletrack. That region of Vermont has a lot to offer.
    I really doubt going out West would be cheaper right now with the way airfare is. Skiing out there really can't be considered a "bargain."

    That isn't really true. Plenty of Boston bars (like: Cask & Flagon) give equal time to NY teams.
