Portsmouth, Maine – look at all those boats out there taking advantage of the good weather.<\/p><\/div>\n

Maine is a place that for some reason gives me the sense of being – solid<\/em>.\u00a0 The ground you see from the road is all rock; and not like the kind of rock you can go pick up either. Rock like it’s been there for ever and you’re not moving it.\u00a0 Not individual rocks, one giant piece of rock.\u00a0 And the soil smells very loamy, like what little of it there is above the solid rock is very rich.\u00a0 Don’t know if any of that’s accurate but that’s what it seems like to me.<\/p>\n

I don’t remember exactly which town this church was in but I do remember hoping that Robin was able to take a good picture. It was amazing and easily the coolest thing in that little town.<\/p><\/div>\n
One thing I try to do is see if I can find any stand out places to eat dinner at our destination.\u00a0 Since I had ample time yesterday I found a place I wanted to try.\u00a0 Top rated for all its food and especially their lobster roll The Eagles Nest was where we were headed.\u00a0 What they didn’t say was that this place is SMALL.\u00a0 It’s on the side of a 45 mph road and there is nothing else around it.\u00a0 I had it programed into my GPS and still blew right by it. Right on the river and actually built out over the side of the steep hill going down to the river, this place is so small that if you don’t catch the front door & it slams (it’s on a spring) the whole building shakes a little.\u00a0 We took the window seat looking out at the river and had a great view but I’m positive had Robin seen a side view of the place and how far out on stilts we were – she would have waited for me at the bike.\u00a0 Other than that the food was fantastic.\u00a0 We both got the lobster roll and since they are so big, I had to eat half of Robin’s.\u00a0 I’m gonna say it’s easily half a pound of lobster meat on a piece of bread smaller than a cheap-o hot dog bun.\u00a0 Good Eats<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you’re ever in Bangor – better give this place a try.<\/p><\/div>\n

We did the first 100 miles or so on the slab then headed for the country.\u00a0 Awesome roads for the most part and as green as can be.\u00a0 When you get to the towns the roads deteriorate to OMG how do we get through here without having a wreck.\u00a0 I’m guessing that it’s difficult to do the required maintenance when there are so few roads so they just try to patch them where they can – it’s not working so good in the long run.\u00a0 But other than having to dodge a few pot holes and hang on and ride through quite a few more it’s been a great day.<\/p>\n

Yesterday when I looked out the window there was a heavy wet fog in the air.\u00a0 Not quite enough to make the ground wet but almost.\u00a0 Riding in these conditions will get you very wet after a couple hours, but … Continue reading →<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-527","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lennysride.com\/2014\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/527","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lennysride.com\/2014\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lennysride.com\/2014\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lennysride.com\/2014\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lennysride.com\/2014\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=527"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.lennysride.com\/2014\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/527\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":536,"href":"https:\/\/www.lennysride.com\/2014\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/527\/revisions\/536"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lennysride.com\/2014\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=527"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lennysride.com\/2014\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=527"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lennysride.com\/2014\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=527"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
