Nathan and Jennifer
I already realized that my trip is like anthropological research of people’s’ backyards, so will title the future posts just with names of people I stayed with.
Cycled along the Scarborough Marsh, in Biddeford saw a gear shop, “Everybody Plays”. Was looking for proper bags for my bicycle constantly, but nothing fit. And the last that could fit was a bicycle rack panniers. Finally, in this shop, I saw a couple of soccer backpacks, which guys worked hard to attach to my bike, because my rack actually also didn’t fit. They liked what I was doing and didn’t charge me for these bags.
A few miles before Portsmouth the cycling path came to the regular road, I didn’t see Greenway Trail signs, and asked local cyclists, where to turn better. It was Nathan and Jennifer, and I spent two nights in their spare bedroom. Nathan was an engineer, and Jennifer was a data analytic. Their backyard actually was a forest, where they set a zip-line and Tarzan swing. They took me for dinner at the York54 restaurant. I believe, it was close to the place, where they usually surf. I would probably surf with them, but particularly on that day there was no wind, and water was flat.
