Distance and timing basis
The recorded total and the leg detail need reconciliation. Inspect the leg notes before using this record for timing or navigation. Stops, delays, approach and any separate return travel add time. Basis: producer-declared routed record.
Reading history stays on this device. My road watch requires a separate selection; opening it does not subscribe this ride.
Distance and riding time are measured on the routed road. Check local closures and conditions before you ride.
Waypoint introductions and full write-ups
1. Winter Harbor
Winter Harbor is the real Maine that the postcards approximate: a working lobster village at the end of a long peninsula, with boats at the wharf, stacks of traps in yards and a sign or two selling crabmeat. It sits on the Schoodic Peninsula, the only part of Acadia National Park on the mainland, and the contrast with the busy Mount Desert Island across the bay is huge. Here there are fewer people, more fog and a feeling of being at the edge of the world.
