Tour de Nantucket
04/18/09 17:29
On Friday, my good friend Jay and I decided to fly down to Nantucket and do a bike ride. We left around 8 or so and it was a smooth, beautiful flight down. It can be pretty windy on the islands, but there was only about a 12kt wind out of the west and the skies were clear.
We loaded up the bikes - I removed my front tire and Jay took off both of his. Snug, but no problem. We flew over Boston on the way down and then out to Martha’s Vineyard first. We flew around to the west of the island at about 2,000 feet for a little sightseeing and then headed back east across to Nantucket. We unloaded the bikes and rode all the way to the eastern edge of the island, came back to town for coffee and then road all the way to the western side. We did about 38 miles total on an amazing day. Flew back just east of Logan and back into NH along the coast.
