Yes I climbed the pass and mostly on the bike. The last half mile was the most difficult and I don't care how many gears My bike has, there are not enough. I really need a motor. We had a great downhill and I road in the rain long enough to have sand in my socks and even in my ears. I was riding as fast as I could to get to Maine and hopefully out of the rain and boom. My back tire blew so there I was waiting for the sag. She picked me up and we drove to the next sag stop and then changed the tire. I missed the Maine sign, darn. We had two more blowouts before Patty got there and booted the tire as it had a cut all the way through. Ready now I set out to finish the ride and the next few hills were steeper than climbing the pass so lots of walking until I had a slow leak in the front tire but just kept going until the sag came and I sagged in with 48 mile for the day. Our Motel is very nice and we had visitors just before dinner, a friend of another friend who lives here in Bridgton. So much for this expensive day but there are more pictures on the blog to share Brakin Bev
