The Overlook at the Cellardoor Winery Vineyard in Lincolnville |
Come join us this Saturday for
a special Kennebec Valley Bicycle Club ride in Camden and Lincolnville. The
ride will feature a stop at the Cellardoor Winery, and some back roads in a area
that we don't get a chance to ride in (as a group) that often. Part of the
route will trace part of the East Coast Greenway, and the ride will have other
treats in store. Hope to see you on Saturday!
July 13th, Saturday:
Camden
“Camden Vineyard Tour” – a
circuit of Megunticook Lake, including Camden and the Cellardoor Winery and vineyard
in Youngtown (Lincolnville).
START: 9:30 A.M.,
at the Cellardoor
Winery, 367 Youngtown
Rd, one mile east of Route 52. Park in the rear,
behind the winery store, keeping in mind that they will have regular customer
parking on a Saturday.
DIRECTIONS:
From Camden, take Rt. 52 north
for 5 miles and turn right onto the Youngtown Rd for one mile. See the
Cellardoor Winery website for map and detailed directions: http://mainewine.com.
DISTANCE:
20-30
miles, depending if a loop from Camden to Rockport is taken
and if we return to the winery via Rt. 52 or via Rts. 1 and 173. The route is
moderately hilly, and the road surfaces are showing
wear.
HIGHLIGHTS:
Visit the winery
store and take a walk through the vineyards. Numerous lake views during the
ride. Camden
(& Rockport). Part of the route is the official East Coast Greenway interim
on-road coastal route.
LUNCH:
The picnic tables
outside the winery store are available for us to use after our ride. We can
bring a bag lunch, or they sell beverages, local cheeses, breads, and other
goodies. And of course, they sell wine and have wine
tasting.
LEADER: Jim
Merrick.
