The Blackstone trail beginning at the southern most Woonsockett factory is magnificient. Perfect. It is well used but not crowded. My wife and I go on ride dates down and back on the East Providence to Bristol trail.
Roads around Bryant are very inviting. Nice rolling hills, beautiful area is Smithfield. Our ride to Woonsocket included some of Rt. 126 which wasn't the best but I like exploring urban areas too and Woonsockett has some fascinating history and renovated areas. Traffic seems aware of bicycle traffic and is moderate speed so we didn't feel uncomfortable.
Bryant Universtity has really boomed into a beautiful campus. Great Italian restaurant just south on rt 7 too.
