Thursday and Friday we went down to the Cape and used the last two days of our reservation at Seashore Park Inn. I upgraded the room so we'd have a king size bed and a bit more space with a small living room. Much nicer! Seashore Park is an OK place to stay and the price was right.

The Cape has some great biking. Thursday we did 20+ miles on the Cape Cod Rail Trail. It was VERY windy so we decided to bike N against the wind out so we'd have it at our backs when returning. It turned out well since after 20 miles we were both fairly tired. Here's our route.

Here are a bunch of pictures from these rides.
Saturday we decided to bike to the farm store at Nine Acre Corner. That ride is about 14 or 15 miles. The store is a nice place to stop with picnic benches and tents. Here's our route and some pictures from the ride. BB rode her Rock Hopper finally. It's MUCH lighter and a generally better bike than she's been riding.

Sunday we decided to ride the rail trail from Bedford to Lexington. This was the site of our very first bike ride together. Memory serves we rode a total of 3 miles or so. Sunday we zipped down to Lexington (about 4 miles), walked around a bit, then rode back. We were both looking for a fairly short ride as 3 back to back days of biking had us both a bit leg weary. Monday we decided to do that ride again stopping in Lexington for lunch. Interestingly, BB remarked that 4 miles is not much of a ride! Here's the route and some photos from those rides.

Between all the rides we did 50 plus miles over 5 days. Not much, I suppose, by some standards but fun for us.
