Kancamagus Pass, locally known as "The Kanc" is the last pass of this trip. No more big hills. They have an annual ride here called "Crank the Kanc". This we have done. We passed into New Hampsire, completed the pass, then went into Maine and are now in Fryeburg, Maine. Tomorrow we finish the ride across America by going to Portland, ME, about 55 miles distant.
New Hampshire
Live Free or Diet?
It's Live Free or Die. A little trimming is in order here... :)
A Nice Stream in New Hampshire
The Connecticut River separates New Hampshire and Vermont.
We were not able to book the train before Friday, so we will leave for home then. We expect to meet with Alicia's parents August 4th.
The pass was tough, but not too bad. We have had rougher climbs. We were able to maintain some good speed (for climbing) up the pass. We had a touch of rain coming down the pass, though we learned that the full brunt of the storm was a deluge that moved through just before us.
Last week we rode 509 miles - really big considering all the climbing. Our total for the trip was 3,833.5 miles. With today and the expected 55 miles tomorrow, we should finish just under 4,000 miles at 3,968.5 miles. We will ride down US Highway 302 into Portland.
