8th Annual Maine Lobster Ride and Roll
July 25, 2009
Rockland High School
Rockland, Maine
On my “Top-ten-bike-rides-of-all-time” list...memory of the ride will be a haven to which I return during the cold winter months. I look forward to next year’s Lobster Ride.”
- Peter Rubinstein, first time Lobster Rider in 2005
Each summer, the Bicycle Coalition of Maine hosts the Maine Lobster Ride & Roll, Maine’s most scenic bike rides along winding country lanes and the breathtaking rockbound coast in gorgeous Midcoast Maine [view photos]. The ride features four marked routes from 16-100 miles, with fantastic ocean views, fresh ocean air, maps, support services, rest stops with food and water, and a fresh Maine lobster roll dinner. Lobster Riders also get collectable Lobster Ride socks! According to one regular Lobster Rider with a GPS unit, the 50-mile route has a little over 2,000 feet of climbing while the full 100-mile route has about 5,250 feet of climbing.
You might even see a lobster pot, buoy, boat or even a real lobster (lobster sightings not guaranteed but we have a very high success rate!) and Maine's own world-famous Lobster Bike will be there! This fun event benefits the BCM's important education and advocacy work for better bicycling in Maine.

Why You Should Pre-Register for the Maine Lobster Ride & Roll:
- You are more likely to do this great ride (be honest -- you are less like to whimp out with excuses like "oh I should watch the grass grow a bit" when you've got some money invested).
- You speed up your check in at the event
- You help us prepare for enough volunteers and supplies because you give us a more accurate prediction of how many to expect when we have your early registration
- It is a fundraiser for the Bicycle Coalition of Maine after all -- a worthy cause deserving your donation, even if for some reason you do have to watch your grass grow ;-)
