Get a bike. Then don't use it all winter. If you do use it in the winter, don't be insane and try right-angle left turns during winter, unless you are well padded and are going for humour value. ^_^
Any decent town has a commons.
The odds of getting mediocre (much less bad) ice cream are very poor, at least, if you avoid bullshit like Safeway. Kind of like how cheap sushi here is usually good, as opposed to terrifying, nonexistant, or deadly like it is in most of the country? And like how all pizza in NYC is going to be pretty f'ing good, because everybody just knows how to make it right? Ice cream is a force of nature in New England. You might find bad stuff, but not often. Toscanini's is good out east (Boston area); I don't remember any brands specific to the Amherst area. But here are some places to try. One's in Amherst. I think I've had ice cream from there. It was good. ^_^
