Ride distance: 89 miles; ride time: 4:45; cumulative distance: 3,923 miles; average speed: 16.6 mph; calories: 5105; ascent: 4267 feet; descent: 4768 feet. We made it to Maine! We’re not at the coast yet but should be tomorrow. John, Dan and I had breakfast with our hosts, Robert and Monica. We then met up with the rest of the group and started our ascent of Kancamagus Pass. It has an elevation of 2,855 feet. It didn’t turn out to be as hard as we thought. Mike, Paul Bayfield and I were the first ones to the top. We covered the 12.6 mile distance to the pass in just over an hour. The real steep hills turned out to be the ones after lunch. They were much shorter but also much steeper. One hill was as steep as 21%. I reached our host church first at about 3:30 and the others came in later. The youth group at the Advent Christian Church in Oxford served u
s a lasagna dinner and we did a Youth for Christ presentation for them When we have a meeting for youth, we make it fun by having a scavenger hunt pitting the boys against the girls. The items in the scavenger hunt all help to tell the story of our bike ride. Tonight the boys were victorious. John and I are staying with Pastor Frank and his wife Judy.. We watched the Olympics and munched on Judy’s delicious cookies.
