    First Tour To ME

    My partner and I went our first bicycle tour last week. We rode 254 miles over 5 days, going from Bedford MA to York ME and back. It is good training for the Harbor to the Bay AIDS ride I am doing in September.

    (If any of you would like to sponsor me for that ride, you can by going to my Harbor to the Bay homepage :
    https://www.harbortothebay.org/personal.asp?ID=618

    Or if you prefer, you can download a form and send in your donation by going to harbortothebay.org and clicking on “donate” from the menu on the left of the page. I am rider #51. )

    Later this week I am embarking on a second tour. A friend and I are going to be driven to northern VT and are going to ride back to MA. I think it will be fun, except I am a little worried about the mountain we have to go over.

    Great pictures....really makes me want to get out on the road. I'm just working way too many hours this year - haven't had any time on the road. What bike are you riding? I see your friend is riding a Surley - any feedback on the Surley? I'm researching touring bikes and that one is at the top of my list. Good luck on your next ride....make sure to post more pictures.
