Acadia 100 mile ride....a great group

In between design time... Emily and I got a ride in, did the Acadia National park Century ride, it was a hoot, got to see a whole bunch of folks I have not seen in a while. Many folks I used to ride with in Portland. The day was spectacular, glistening sun on the ocean, and lakes, lots of happy cyclists parading around the park, taking the place over. I rode with some new folks from Belfast cycling team that had fast and large legs... hung on and enjoyed some punishment... rode with some folks from back bay cycle who are always fun to ride with.
The only down was not enough hydration, legs cramped a bit, but did make the climb up Cadillac with reasonable work. I was happy to see Emily on the way up as I sailed down the auto road. All in all we had a blast... if you get a chance do this non entry fee ride....many people having a grand day.
