Nomad on I95 in Maine

I passed a 2009 Nomad on 95 in Maine near Portland today (Saturday, May 15th at 1:30 or so). I was going north, the 2009 was going south. Was it one of you?

I know it's a long shot, but thought I'd check Rarely see a Nomad.

Really impressed with the back roads here and in New Hampshire. Seafood beats what you get in Michigan too!

Yep, I went up 202. I'm in Auburn Maine right now. WOW Mac, you live in a beautiful area with great roads. Got a little tired of the 35 and 45 mph speed limits, felt kind of wild and crazy when I hit the 50 mph when I entered Maine, but some of the best riding I have ever had.

Huh? Most of Rt 25, Rt 16 is 55 mph, and so far I can go 10 over and not get tagged. Rt 2 is posted the same but you can run well over 10+.

Better watch out fer moose and bear though... Both are on the move RIGHT NOW.

Rt 202 is ok.... nuthin' special. Where away to next? maybe I can lend a tip? I thought you were back home.

Have you been to the coast yet? Are you still headed Nor' East? if nuthin else Go To Arcadia!







Redjay, no not yet. I found it after buring it for a new cement barn floor.. it doesn't look promising a bit. Pretty much it is a sealed unit, not built to be taken apart. Not built to be a sevicable part. grrrrr

I rode my '83 Goldwing into Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont when I was at Fort Devens, MA. Some beautiful country up there for sure.

Radco, I'm impressed. Nad's are so cool looking to start with that often I think the mods detract, but yours really makes it look even cooler. Well done!

Bet you like the extra wind protection on cool days too. Sure makes a big difference in northern Michgan almost year round. I imagine that is true in Maine too. Sure was this morning.
