Apple Acres Ride 10:00 am start

Thursday, October 6th, 2016

Thursday looks like a great day for a bike ride!!

Dave and Connie created this ride a few years ago and everyone loved it!  It should be a beautiful ride this week, especially now with the fall foliage, and it is, of course, apple season!

Start the ride from the Brownfield Community Center, head to Route 160 via Pig Street, turn left on Tripptown Road, left on Durgintown Rd. Stop at Apple Acres for the view, the ice cream and the apples, maybe cider? Continue downhill and turn left on scenic River Rd to Hiram.  Take a right onto Route 117 and ride to the Obelisk in the center of Denmark. Take a left onto Route 160 and head back to the Community Center.

Ready to Ride at 10:00 am.

Distance is about 35 miles. 

Dave and Connie with be the hosts for this ride.

Meet at the Brownfield Community Center, ready to ride at 10:00 am. 

To drive there from the Conway area and avoid any Fryeburg Fair traffic, take Route 302 to Center Conway and take a right onto Mill Street to go by the northeast edge of Conway Lake. Continue into Maine and take a left onto Hampshire. Bear left at the Y junction with Route 160, then the community center will be a short distance on your right. 

Carpool if you like, from the back of Grant's parking lot, 9:00 am.
