How about a ride to The Basin? It is always a beautiful, fun ride, roads are quiet and the weather looks good!
Meet in North Fryeburg at the corner of South Chatham Road and Route 113, in the park next to the Saco Valley Fire Station. As you already know, please do not block the fire station parking area. There is no porta potty there, but there is one at the Little White Church, so stop there on the way, or, we will bike by it on our way out for another opportunity.
Start, Ready to Ride, at 9:30 am
We will head to Fish Street first and MacNeil, then out on Union Hill and Meadow to the Stow Store and do the loop section the counterclockwise way then up 113 to The Basin.
Heading back will be a good ride, a few uphills, but mostly downhill, hope for a tailwind!
Total mileage: 29. This ride allows for many options to shorten or lengthen the ride and choice of route to get from place to place.
If you want a longer ride, start at the Maine Visitor's Center to add a total of 18 more miles (9 miles each way), for a total of 47 relatively easy miles. If you start riding from the Visitor's Center by 8:40 you should easily meet the group at the Fire Station or at the little white church as they turn onto Fish Street to head to MacNeil.
