Who said cyclists never plan? The Great Balkini does, and in this installment he tells you how to ride smarter, not harder. Sure you like to just hop on and ride into the great blue yonder, but think about it. Could you, perhaps, get more out of that trip with a few special tips?

Wiggly Bridge and Steedman Woods
Written by GOseacoast Walks   

Wiggly Bridge/ SeacoastNH.com
SCENIC SEACOAST WALKS
York Harbor, Maine

You've either discovered this one yourself, or it is a total surprise. One great way to "discover" the bridge is to start your walk from York Village and bear right as the road bears left to hug the coast. Betteryet, walk from Old York Village down the side street to the Marshall Store. Slip into the woody area just before the store and you'll find the bridge on the other side.

 

 
Sea Point and Crescent Beach
Written by GOseacoast Walks   

Sea Point
SEACOAST SCENIC WALKS
Kittery, ME

Part two of our stroll between Kittery's two beaches, divided only by a spit of grassland that juts out into the Atlantic. THis spot made it into the newspapers back in the 80s when nudes were spotted sunning on the rocky coast. The nudes, we think are gone, but the dogs have taken their place. We've not seen a place like it -- a tiny piece of land between two curved beaches.

 

 
Pomham Rocks Light
Written by Jeremy D'Entremont   

Pomham ROcks Light (c) Jeremy D'Entremont
East Providence, RI
Est 1871, tower is 40 feet tall
Light is 54 feet above water.

Why not view this spectacular sight by bike? The lighthouse can be easily viewed from the 14.5 mile long East Bay Bicycle Path that borders the Providence River. The path is open to walkers as well as bikers.

Learning to Bike All Over Again
Written by David Balkin   

Basic Cycling
SEACOAST CYCLING #2

When you were young, you rode your bike with impunity. It was your friend, your car, your freedom, your life. So what happened? Something changed, and it was not the bicycle. The Great Balkini, now officially a senior citizen, wants to help you put things right between you and your bike again. He’ll be back every two weeks to check, so listen to your elders.
