Setting Out on Another Leg Back to Wayne |
We had another fine ride from Gardiner on July 15.
although due to temperatures well up in the 90s we decided to cut the ride short
a bit. It was a great ride with very little traffic - maybe it was too hot for
the air-conditioned bohemoths? Our thanks to Geology Joe for another great
improvised ride. Word is that the BCM Lobster Ride last Saturday was such a success, they had
to close registration before the ride even started! And the gorgeous weather
looks like it will continue this weekend, when we will meet again in Wayne for
the Wayne Refrain around Androscoggin Lake, with a possible post-ride stop at
Tubby's Ice Cream. Don't refrain from showing up!
"The Wayne Refrain - Androscoggin Lake Loop" - a loop of Androscoggin Lake,
with a couple detours for special Wayne sights.
START: 8:30 AM, at the Wayne Elementary School, Pond Rd (turn north from
Rt. 133, just west of Wayne village; go 1/4-mile, park in lot at north end of
bldg.)
DISTANCE: 26 miles
TERRAIN: Moderately hilly
HIGHLIGHTS: beginning loop goes by the Wayne Ring cemetery (Pond Rd) and
the Wayne Desert (Berry Rd). Great views eastward in Leeds (Rt. 106). A detour
near the end climbs Morrison Heights for a beautiful view westward over Lake
Androscoggin. Food and ice cream at Tubby's at the finish, and if before noon,
grocery shopping at the adjacent Wayne Farmers' Market.
LEADER: Ray Giglio.
