    FRA Parking Lot

  This year marks the 22nd Annual Maine Lighthouse Ride, a spectacular cycling event that showcases the breathtaking beauty of southern Maine’s coastline. Riders will experience stunning ocean views, rolling terrain, the iconic Scarborough Marsh, and multiple historic lighthouses along four scenic routes covering 25, 40, 62, and 100 miles.

  Participants register for this ride in support of the Eastern Trail Alliance, a nonprofit dedicated to expanding and maintaining the Eastern Trail. Last year, over 800 cyclists pedaled along Maine’s coastline, visiting lighthouses and raising funds to support this vital cause.

  As part of our commitment to the community, FRA proudly provides its parking lot as a key rest stop for the event, offering restrooms and refreshments to riders as they take in the beauty of our coastal region.

  We’re honored to support this incredible tradition and the cyclists who ride for a great cause!   ‍
