Appleton Has a Ridge


The damp. dreary weather of late has certainly been persistent, but we are still here, as are most of our roads (unlike Vermont, sadly).  I missed last week's ride in Winslow, but I imagine that, thanks to Tom, it went off well if it was anything like last year's ride.  This week we head out to Liberty to explore the roads around Palermo and Appleton, always a treat!  Hope you can join us!


Saturday, July 15 - LIBERTY
"Palermo, Beyond the Pale" - an adventurous ride through Liberty, Palermo, Appleton and Searsport.
START: 9:00 am at the parking lot of ReVision Energy on Rt. 3 in Liberty, about a half mile east of the junction of Rt.s 3 & 220 (about 1.5 miles past the entrance to Liberty State Park). ReVision Energy is on the left, east-bound.
DISTANCE: 31 or 34 miles.
TERRAIN: rolling to hilly; the Appleton Ridge option is partially unpaved.
HIGHLIGHTS: exceptional rural back roads and small hamlets, including the option of traversing Appleton Ridge with its spectacular vistas.
