What do we think for a ride this year? Try to do a few different ones so everyone can get a chance to make one? I would like to get one done in Jan snow dependent. What do we want to do put up a pol on where?

Now we need the engineer to lay out the maps, get the coordinates, send the emails and we are in.

Huh. Backside from Milli? Why not do a couple daytrip loops midstate? Newport to Greenville, to B52 Site, to Kokadjo, thru to Milo back to Newport. Big loop. If people from away want to stay in Skowtown there's a good motel there. Then on Sunday we can do a Bingham to Jackman and back loop.
I have always wanted to ride downeast from Bangor east and up to Lincoln.
Unless someone knows someone who's done the backtrail trip to the train, I'm not going to be responsible for a bunch of short track sleds trying to boondock to the trains. We could definitely figure out a route. It's just whether the roads are plowed or trail broken that's the deal breaker.

You just need a couple good 'Gades to break it. :mrgreen:

I like your thinking Dix! Off, 24, Who says your responsible? It was a joke. Wanted to try some different areas. Haven't been to Shin Pond , Milli, Southern Aroostook yet. Don't need to try trains I guess until later in the year.
Rs Racin, you can follow us anytime. Probably wait till later in the year when the snowpack gets harder.

Not really. I may be selling the Scat and getting an Fcat soon. If we agree on $$ its done. What do you think I can get for the Scat? 05 700 with 9500 miles. Runs and rides awesome has great compression. Starts right up, even has the remote start. One owner, ALL miles are northern miles

Jeff, based on KBB.com and miles I would start at maybe 3.5. Good luck on the sale.

When you ride in a group EVERYONE is responsible for each others well being! Its just the way of the trail. I know I've needed help a time or two, ehh Dix? - LOL

I think he meant that Steve need not worry about him. Sort of like signing a waver. Jeff is an accomplished rider and would lend a hand if needed. I know I usually do something stupid to get stuck.

Just spent 4 nights at camp. Hunting, howling at the moon, rain, outhouse, instant coffee, civilization is everything it's cracked up to be. But camp is brilliant............

Civilization is over rated..
