Anyway, rather than dwelling on that, Here's the last part of our vacation recap.
On our last day (a week ago), we packed up the car, checked out of our chalet-motel by the lake in Greenville Junction (Piscataquis County) and went out to use the bikes we'd been carting around for the last five days.
We cycled along part of a rail trail very close to where we'd been staying. The views in a couple of spots were stunning. Wildlife sightings were limited to a few birds (including this belted kingfisher) and a few insects (including this spectacular white-marked tussock moth caterpillar). Eventually, the trail became rather big stones which were probably better for standing up to the rigours of the ATVs that use the trail than for the comfort of cyclists so we decided to turn around.
In all, we cycled about six miles, then we packed the bikes back into/onto the car and started our journey home. Although it was not much cycling, I'm glad we got organised to carry the bikes, it gives us new options and we proved to ourselves that it works out pretty well.
