I've wanted to do the Maine Bicycle Coaltion's Women's Ride ever since I first found out about it; not only is it for a good cause, but I always enjoy the comraderie of women of all ages. I've never wanted to register for it beforehand as I no longer will bike in rain and/or crappy weather! So, although I really hadn't trained for this ride (I'd ridden 9 miles the previous Sunday), I woke up to bright sunny blue skies and ideal temps in the 60's and low 70's...so off I went to Freeport to register! We rode from Freeport to Pownal and then up New Gloucester (Pineland), before heading back.

| I ended up riding most of the time with these women from northern Maine; they were good company. |

| Our first rest stop was I believe at 11 or 12 miles! |

| ugh, lots of hills! |
 |
| but very pretty, quiet roads with amazing views of the countryside |

| All done! |
Really enjoyed meeting you Sandy! Thanks so much for riding with me.
