Guides will meet you at the Portland Encyclepedia for a bike fitting. Enjoy great views of downtown Portland and Casco Bay on the short ferry ride to Peaks.
A few small hills will get us onto the road around the island. We will stop to visit the 5th Maine Museum and Battery Steele to learn how this small island played a vital role in two wars.
We will cycle the island’s coast for stunning views of the Ram Island Ledge Light – unmissable Maine coastal scenery.
Our ride leaves us time to enjoy a lobster roll and poke around town before we queue for the ferry (part of the island experience) and return to Portland on the 14:45 ferry.
Total cycling: six miles.
