We
had a great ride last Saturday, and a terrific turnout for Denise's
"Big Lakes Tour" from East Winthrop. We had the pleasure of welcoming
some new people and seeing some familiar faces - and the weather turned
out to be great as well. Our thanks to Denise and her crew (Hi Brian!),
and to Tom, who provided us with cold water at his shop at the ride's
end.
This week's ride will feature another classic KVBC
ride: the "Tour de Lacs" in Wayne. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE DATE OF THE
RIDE HAS BEEN CHANGED FROM SATURDAY TO SUNDAY. Since many folks may be
already signed up to do the BCM's Women's Ride in Freeport on Sunday, I will post the map and cue sheet for the Wayne ride for those who
might like to do it on Saturday as a show-and-go leaderless ride.
Otherwise I hope to see you on Sunday, and have a great ride regardless!Sunday, June 7th - WAYNE
"The Tour de Lacs" - a loop of Androscoggin Lake, with a couple detours for
special Wayne sights.
START: 9:00 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

Androscoggin. Food and ice cream at Tubby's at the finish?
