We have new photos from our trip to Maine on our website. You can see puffins, boats and mountain biking.
This is a section of trail we rode at Bradbury Mt. State Park - awesome single track!

Those are cool pictures! I have a friend who sent me some lighthouse pictures from Washington. It's neat to see the one you took from Maine. I like lighthouses. I've never seen a log bridge. It looks scary. I think I'd fall off. Is it hard to cross? It looks fun though. Pretty place to ride!

It took me two days to finally have enough confidence to ride over one, and it was only 6 inches or so off the ground.

Looks like you had fun in Bradbury! We call those log bridges "riding the skinny" here. Takes some practice, and if there is any room for error, I generally walk
. Oh - and they are still called switchbacks even if the ground is flat - welcome to riding in New England - quite a bit different from CA...
