 Portland to Kittery, Maine Today it rained and rained heavily and we had a 64 mile ride.  Because of the weather, length of ride and Jeff going into Afib yesterday, he used a rental car to drive to Kittery.  Joe, however, was determined to cycle regardless of the conditions and pedaled the whole way.  Because the next 2 days are short and the weather is supposed to be nice, Jeff plans to keep cycling.   Map of today Trip total map Pictures

  New Haven, CT to Rye, New York Today’s ride was tough.  We had 60 miles of urban cycling and warmer temperatures. Lots of traffic, no trails and no rural roads.  We did manage to find things for Joe to photograph and we enjoyed the water views when they came.

In 2012, we drove past Bangor to cycle Acadia National Park and Canada’s Cape Breton Island.  Since we saw that part of Maine, we were content to start our ride from Bangor. We plan to follow the East Coast Greenway from Maine to New York.  The East Coast Greenway is a 3,000-mile bicycle route between Maine and Florida. The nonprofit East Coast Greenway Alliance was started in 1991 to create a north-south route with off-road and shared-use paths.  O...
