This fabulous ride starts across the street from the Berlin
Airport. First we'll pedal north on the rural and quiet East Side River Road which
closely follows the Androscoggin River and has wonderful views. Next we'll turn
right onto Hill Street, a dirt road which gently rises through woods and farm
lands and takes us on a loop with great southern views and back to East Side
River Road. From here we'll ride to dirt roads which parallel a hydropower
canal before getting us to the seldom visited east side of the Androscoggin
River. Before starting our return on East Side River Road we'll stop for a
water front lunch at either the dam or the hydro station south of the dam.

You should also see an airport sign pointing right too. Cross over the Androscoggin River and at the end of Bridge Street pull into the ball park lot on your left.
