Default Martha's Vineyard / Nantucket?

As noted in an earlier post, my wife and I will be staying in Dennisport,
Cape Cod for a week later this month. In addition to the Cape Cod Rail
Trail, we'd like to tool around Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket, maybe Block
Island, and any other places people can suggest in that general New England
area.

Can anybody provide any tips on where to ride, how to get there, where to
eat, etc.

FYI, we'll be staying in a timeshare on Cape Cod, so our trips to the
Vineyard and various islands will only be day trips. My wife is not a
serious rider, so we're looking at rides of maybe 20-25 miles round trip in
each place. Also, I am vegetarian, so if anybody knows any
vegetarian-friendly Italian, Chinese, Indian, Mexican, or American
restaurants, please let me know.

Thank you!

If you want to save some boat time, drive to Woods Hole and take the
ferry to MV about 45 min ride.about $9 with bike 1 way. The paths on
MV are wide sidewalks and well marked. You can ride the whole island
and end up at either ferry (Oak Bluffs or Vineyard Haven) which will
get you to Woods Hole. In Falmouth find Locust St and the parking lot
for the Shining Sea trail (3+ miles) that will take you to Woods Hole.
There is a nice place to eat right by the WH ferry. Take the CCRT to
Chatham, nice place to visit
