We had a splendid "Independence Day
Ride" last Saturday in Sidney, now in its 16th (or is it 17th?) year,
with nothing to hold us up but a cattle crossing in betwixt two
interstate on ramps. Yay, Sidney! And many thanks again to leader, Jim
Putnam, and all who took part. This Saturday we will venture down to
Damariscotta and a very popular ride down the coast to Pemaquid Point.
Will there be a lobster crossing? Who knows? We'll have to find out!
