Has anyone out there done the Maine 80 ride? I am considering my Memorial
Day weekend ride options, and would like to find out about this ride. What
is the surface like? The horse I am likely to be riding has had problems
with bruised feet on hard going (even with pads). Any hills? What is the
typical weather?

I've done the Jersey 3-day 100 twice (one pine tree looks like the next),
and didn't really enjoy the first 25 miles of the Great East Branch 50 when
I did their limited distance ride in 1994. So I'm looking for other options.

thanks for the input.
