I've enjoyed atving since childhood and while Maine is my home, nothing would please me more than to spend my time riding all over the U.S. and Canada.
Downeast Scenic Railroad: Touch-a-train
Checking out the open house for the Downeast Scenic Railroad. It was a pleasure to hear Diane’s story and I sincerely hope she gets to ride the 470 one more time.

One may get tired of certain trails, but those trail tend to hold some hidden excitement. We helped a cyclist across a major puddle, prevented a turtle from possibly laying eggs in the middle of a trail, jammed up my wrist due to a washout(I'm fine, a little sore but nothing broken, man or machine) and got some nice air in the process according to my riding partner, toasted my arms in the sun a...
Great job Tim Thank you for what you do.
What gps trail app do you use?
I been using gps trailmasters since 2017. They are a New England based company and constantly updating trail changes on almost a weekly basis. I'd say they are 80% accurate on their mapping.
Group ride and no one thought to bring a hand saw?
@@wg5768 I’ve been meaning to order one.
Awesome.
Thanks for posting this video. I live in the vicinity of Mechanic Falls and I was wondering what the trails were like going up to Oxford. I have a SXS and I really don't like the sections of the trails that have lots of loose rocks.
@@wg5768 You’re welcome, I appreciate you watching. The Downeast Sunrise Trail may be better suited for you. Probably the easiest riding in the state.
Great run Tim. Had an awesome time. Hope to meet up on the trails again soon.
@@gixxr1100 Thank you, I hope so too.
How many miles on the 500 now? Everything been good with it?
@@rzl07375 A little over 1400 miles. No major issues as of yet.
@@1kukini Awesome, Im getting one soon. Any idea what kind of range you get on a tank of gas?
@@rzl07375 In most cases I’ve been getting between 60-70 miles on 2.5 gallons when I’m able to fuel up at a pump on a trail ride. I’m confident a 100+ mile day is doable on a casual long distance ride.
Reminds me of going up marble mountain this month. Almost rolled a quad and more!
I'm glad your ok. Trails like this are unfortunately getting harder to find and enjoy in Maine. Especially with the state getting more stringent on trail guidelines.
@@1kukini I’m gonna post the vids maybe by Saturday so if you wanna check it out check whenever i am able to publish it
@@Countryboy404 Will do, I look forward to it.
@@1kukini 👍
Just did the houston loop in brownville junction yesterday . Real bad washout. Did see a big bull moose
@@fritzzwickeyThanks for letting me know. It’s been a while since I’ve seen one on a ride.
Great work on the video
@@MrGviscarra Thanks
Looks like a great ride
@@jasonarbour1616 It was, my only regret was not being able to run it in the evening like everyone else.
A beautiful river flowing caring less about calamities caused by humans elsewhere. 😊
I just wasted 38 seconds.....
I suppose it means something to someone but...........
Looks like a great place to ride. Do have an aftermarket skide plate?
Yes I do, I got the HDPE one available from CF Moto. I’ve heard the Iron Baltic one is good also. It was a great area to ride. I never got to explore some of the interior trails, my GPS track showed me I stuck to the outer loop.
I have one as well. I have the Iron Baltic for my 600 1up
@@MrGviscarra They are really worth it. I haven't taken any serious hits on Lil' blue yet but have on my prior Wolverines. I had aftermarket skids on them also and glad I did.
Hi Tim - enjoy your videos in fact watching you is how we found the DEST. Do you know- is there a trail that goes from Milbridge to the Steuben Country Store on Rt One? Thank you!
Thank you so much and I hope you’re having some great rides. I am personally not aware of a connection to that store but I asked the president of the nearest club to that area and will follow up as soon as I get an answer.
Unfortunately, not at this time. The club president says they are trying to get some of those connections back but one landowner is preventing it.
Thank you for the info - the older ATV map shows the trail but I wasn’t sure if it actually existed anymore. Thanks again and we’ll keep watching your rides
@@SO-bq9lt Your welcome and have fun.
you gotta go to friars best sandwich in maine
Great video. Same type of trail we ride here in Colorado. Your so right about the camera not showing the true Terrain of the trail. Take care, and look forward for more videos.
Thanks, Colorado is a trip I'd really like to make. Trails like this in Maine are becoming a rare thing with 90% of the trails being on privately owned land(4000+ landowners) and the state getting much more involved.
@1kukini we don't have a lot of trails being closed out here, thank God. The views and the wildlife we see here is amazing. I'm so thankful for that. There's a trail out here that is crazy difficult. It's the hardest trail I've ever rode. The incline is pretty steep. It's more of a jeep trail. Jeeps have to winch up in some spots. I've done it 3 times and the 3rd time got me. Crashed out. Not to many atv's do that trail. The only atv videos I've ever seen are my videos. If you want to watch it. The trail is called red elephant. The trail is less then a mile long. We found it by taking a wrong turn.
@@MrGviscarra I’ll check it out.
Tim it is nice to see you out riding again! I love your videos. I still hope we could get together and ride this summer.I’m retired so I have a lot of time, although I just got out of the hospital last week after a 5 day stay with a blood infection. That screwed up my blood sugar and they tell me I also have many kidney stones and a bulging dish. But that won’t stop me 👍🏼🙏 I have had the back problem for 8 months. I could go anytime as long as my money and the CVS doesn’t make me more poor at the cost😮 😊
By the way I live in Conway NH
I can’t promise anything but you definitely need to get yourself better. Thanks for watching.
@@1kukini thank you Tim and I hope your wife Is doing better! It sucks getting old 🤪
@@lyndseymarieburke1834 We are doing fine, it’s not enjoyable that’s for sure.
can i pet dat dawwwg
I don’t know, he’s in a big hurry. 😁
@@1kukini lol
So cute ❤❤😊
In an eclipse traffic jam 🥱🤔😮💨 just kidding I stayed home to watch it
I had a pie ball deer here 6 years ago and it was a fawn. After 3 years it was a beautiful eight point buck! 😊
Good Morning Tim 🌞
I miss jacks, it’s too bad about that fire
Some of the best seafood I’ve ever had.
@@1kukini good blooming onions too
@@hunterlabbe6668 Those I never tried unfortunately.
@@1kukini Maybe it’ll reopen one of these years
@@hunterlabbe6668 I hope so.
Nice machine I had a CF Moto 800 XO C force 2022 on tracks and tires the same color and loved it. But after having 5 bypasses and a small stroke I decided to go back to the Yamaha 2X Wolverine 2024 850 I do have a lot of accessories and do love the machine. I picked it up December 1 and only got to use it for a few days deer hunting after that I put it away for the winter. We never had enough ice to go ice fishing and I won’t take one of those out on the ice unless the ice is very thick, hope to meet you on the trail sometime we ride all the time as we are both retired. God bless and happy Easter. 🐣🙏🏻☦️😊
I’m sorry about your health issues, I lost the vision in my left eye due to unchecked blood pressure a few years ago. I was going to get a Wolverine Rmax to replace my X2 but between my wife having a couple of issues that doesn’t make riding enjoyable anymore and the price of a Grizzly being in SxS territory, I decided to try the budget pricing of CF Moto and am so far pleased with my choice. Just keep your eye out for the shirt in my picture, it’s my go to when riding. You have a happy Easter as well.
@@1kukini There is nothing good about the Golden years! LOL I loved my CF Moto they are a great Machine Enjoy it before we can’t ride 🥹😊
@@lyndseymarieburke1834 Believe me, I intend too.
My boyfriend Dana bought a brand new Wolverine RX 1000 and he is going to pick it up this coming weekend and it’s at white and black but it is pretty but I like my 850 better plus mine is load 😂❤
I absolutely love running up and arrange the area and us and you can actually go to Jackman from there and go over to his p Rockwood which is nice and too
We live to ride hunt and fish and play 😊🥰🪵🔥
It’s been awhile, but I enjoy catch and release bass fishing. Something I need to get back into.
We will be riding to here again out of St. Albans . My brother has a home on Big Indian pond I am up there all the time with my other half Dana. He has the same machine as me Wolverine X2 2022
As stated earlier, my ‘16 and ‘19 Wolverines were great. The new X2 1000 has my eye mainly due to the big suspension.
I have a 2024 Yamaha X2 Wolverine 850 and love it had several Yamahas over the years 😊
Love your videos great job! 😊
Thanks, the Maine trails needed a bit more consistent coverage on YT.
Sooo cute ❤
What happened to your side by side?
We sold it with the intention of upgrading to the Wolverine Rmax but Jacqueline had some health concerns pop up that we decided it might not be best for her to continue riding. With that in mind, I went back to a regular ATV.
It's great that you narrate as you ride! Too many videos out there with no talking or information.
Thank you, I’m not the most outspoken person but I try to pass on worthwhile information in my videos.
Perfect weather that day and seeing a moose right on the trail,how cool is that!
It was a great day of riding, considering the day before was raining most of the morning but was also a good time. It’s always enjoyable to see wildlife on the trails. Thanks for watching.
Beautiful fall trail ride. You should've bought a thicker half windshield!
Thank you. It was a Super ATV windshield, I didn't realize the half ones come in different thickness.
Had my last ride last weekend and my last bird hunt sadly
I’m sorry to hear that on both counts. I hope your hunt was a successful one.
@@1kukini we had hunt in September and got 6 bird but this time only 3
@@Countryboy404 At least you didn’t get skunked.
@@1kukini yup
Great ride, great video. Can't wait for next season 👍
Thanks, I’m looking forward to see what another year of “winging it” will bring.
Right on Tim! I just sold my CF Moto wheeler and next year I`m hoping to get a SXS. My heart has been giving me problems along with a list of other "I`m getting old" ailments. I am in the habit of 8 hour rides or more and the wheeler is too much demand for long rides. I can`t wait to get back out on the trails next year, I haven`t been out once this year... I ride in the Corinth Dover Dexter triangle of trails here in Central Maine.
I understand when health issues present themselves and it affects your lifestyle. I permanently lost the vision in my left eye due to an unchecked issue I let go on way to long. And it unveiled some other problems that have forced me to pay better attention to my health. I hope you find the SxS your looking for and want to see you back on the trails next year. I've ridden that area on occasion and enjoyed the trails out that way.
Beautiful
Thank you
another cool area, but that bridge wasnt 65".....guess i was uninvited? lol ur welcome to come up my way park n leave frm my place....
Do you know if this section is now blocked off?!?
I’ve heard rumors it is, I should’ve I confirmed when I was out that way last week.
What town is this ? I usually ride downeast myself.
The 514 trail at MM 38 in Harrington up through the blueberry barrens into Deblois on the way to the Airline.
I ll have try it sometime
me too we should meet up, n tim join us.....
when u ride alone whats ur plan if u brk down?
I don’t really have one, just try to keep my ride in the best shape possible between rides and try not to do anything that would get me into serious trouble.
@@1kukini lol same here but i stress bout it kinda sux
@@RocksNRuts4 Believe me, it's always in the back of my mind.
@@1kukini makes me want to buy a Talon, or hope all SXSs go to direct drv, eliminate belts n 1 fail point
@@RocksNRuts4 The YXZ 1000 has an automatic geared transmission now and a true front locking diff. If I get another SxS, that’s the direction I’d go also. I’m a little tired of CVT’s myself.
nice tech n dirt sections! but bridges n trails seemed narrow
They are slowly getting widened to 65" from what I hear.
@@1kukini im so bummed w/what the gov did....
how wide was that bridge at 5min n 13:20?
They are set at 70” according to the club.
