(EMAILWIRE.COM, April 15, 2011 ) PORTLAND, Maine---Summer Feet Cycling, a bicycle tour company that specializes in high-quality, once in a lifetime bicycling vacations in Maine, recently announced two new Maine weekend getaways for the 2011 season. These two new short weekend bike tours offer cyclists the chance for quick weekend getaways to enjoy the sights and sounds of Portland or an opportunity to explore Maine’s gorgeous Kennebunks. Best of all, these bike trips offer easy to moderate cycling, so they are even appropriate for travelers that aren’t necessarily avid cyclists.

Go Island Hopping In Portland
On this Portland bike tour, spend three exciting days exploring a city that publications like Forbes, Bon Appétit, and Outside have recently selected as one of the best places to live in America. Aside from being an outdoor-lovers paradise, Portland is rife with culinary treasures, coastal beauty, and historical points of interest. Highlights of this tour include exploring Casco Bay by boat and bike, visiting five of Maine’s 71 lighthouses, accommodation at The Danforth in Portland’s historic West End, savoring gourmet Maine cuisine, and explorations of Peaks Island, Chebeague Island, Cousin’s Island, Falmouth, and much more. Dates: July 8-10th, 2011. Price: $875 per person (single supplement $200 per person). Hybrid Bike Rental: $60. Road Bike Rental: $80. Two mileage options are available.

Spend A Weekend Exploring Maine’s Coastal Beauty
On this bike tour, cyclists will spend three days exploring the seaside towns of Kennebunkport, Kennebunk, Arundel, and Cape Porpoise – collectively known as The Kennebunks. These towns are saturated in maritime history, from times of salty sea captains, to a thriving ship building industry, and the fisherman who for centuries have made a living off the coast’s rich marine resources. Today, the stately homes of the sea captains are welcoming B&Bs; boat building is still present, including a boat building school just four miles from town; and many a locals make their living on the sea as lobstermen and fishermen. Highlights of this tour include enjoying culinary delights like feasting on lobster caught by one of Kennebunkport’s own lobstermen, exploring Maine’s rocky coastline from the comfort of a bike, taking an evening sailing trip aboard the Schooner Eleanor, getting an up close and personal experience with the history and culture of this area, and much more. Dates: September 16-18, 2011. Cost: $975 per person ($200 single supplement). Hybrid Bike Rental: $60. Road Bike Rental: $80. Two mileage options are available.
