DAY 2 in the series of riding we just completed up in Wallagrass Maine. Fort Kent is an amazing area to start from when riding Aroostook County.

Very nice video, what great riding. Keep them coming.
Thanks Jeff, and thanks for stopping by the channel to check out the video. Take Care 👍🏼
Another awesome video bud! Can’t wait to go back to Maine! 👍🏼❄️
Hey buddy, seen you in Sledaddics video. Looks like you guys had a great ride as well. We missed not having you with us in Maine. We're thinking about a trip to the U.P. of Michigan this coming season. Hope you can make it if we go. Backpack trip...Take care .
@@jimdaniels3542 absolutely bud! Count me in I’d like to be able to get out with you guys a couple of times next season! Two trips to the US will be awesome! 🇺🇸❄️
Awesome looking trails, would love to take a trip to Maine some year. Wish it wasn’t so far from Pennsylvania. Excellent videos!
Hey LCP_33, Thanks for stopping by and watching the video. Yeah, It’s definitely quite the drive for me as well at 14hrs if I stay in the U.S. but if I go up through Canada it cuts off almost 3 hrs. As yo can see it’s well worth it for sure with how amazing the trails are. Take Care 👍🏼
Going to be camping season soon buddy, looking forward to some of those videos.
Hey Johnny, Yes, it wont be long now. I’ll be going to pick up the motorhome from its winter slumber by the end of the month. You going to Association Island this season?
@@SometimeIsNow I want to, I don’t have the PTO with the new job but they’re going to 4 day work weeks for the summer so 3 day weekend
TWO thank you(s) going out to you, 1. for the GoPro cam info you gave me was a huge help and 2nd for posting your rides in Aroostook County. Because of your posts and PastieBoy, a group of us are now in the planning stage for our first trip up to Fort Kent area for a one week stay. Your videos gave me a good look at places to stay, eat and what to expect for trails. I am soo stoked for this trip. I usually trailer my sleds on a open trailer (utility trailer 7x18), but I am buying a enclosed Mission trailer for this ride and I will finally have a place to store my sleds and get them out of my garage off season. Thank you soo much for you vids!!👍
That’s awesome !👍🏼 You’re going to love it up there.. If I were to make a suggestion on your trip, Travel north on Sunday and then ride Monday- Friday then travel home Saturday. Like most everywhere the trails get busy on the weekends and a lot less during the week. They stay pretty much flawless as you can see in the videos. Depending on where exactly you want to ride from each day there’s a lot of nice houses for rent on airbnb and Pond Brook Cabins in Eagle Lake has 4 really nice cabins and is right on the trail. I believe cabin #2 can hold up to 7 people. Any questions let me know and I’ll point you int he right direction. Take Care 🤙🏼
@@SometimeIsNow Thank you again. Group size will be 6 riders. I have Pond Brook and another place on Eagle lake book marked and another place outside of Houlton. It will be a Mon-Friday ride. Any more questions, I'll give you a shout.
I have been enjoying your channel and especially the videos on the Cat. I have the same sled but in a Sidewinder version. I thought the Elka shocks and dual rate springs would at least make the Cat equivalent to the Ski-Doo in terms of ride comfort. More tuning needed?
Hey Brian, Thanks for watching the videos and supporting my channel. The Elka shocks are top of the line and they were well worth the investment. Comparing the Elkas to a set of smart shox is hard to do. Smart shox’s set in comfort mode have almost zero compression and the suspension moves up and down without any resistance and are very plush. The Elka shocks have a specific settings with the High and low compression and rebound. Now to have a fair comparison you’d need to compare a set of Elka’s to Skidoo’s standard XRS KYB piggyback pro 40 like what was on my 900T XRS with KYB shocks. Those are comparable and the ride quality is equal if not alittle better. Nothing can compare to Smart Shox for comfort. Now.. Run through 6-12” rollers and the Elka shocks will shine over the Smart Shoxs as when you select sport it’s not much stiffer than comfort and sport + gets so stiff it’s like riding a full blown race sled and they’re too stiff. My choice is the Elkas for all around trail conditions. You might have to manually adjust the Elkas but IMO they’re a better all around shock for the way I ride. 👍🏼
Do u live in Main cause u always to be in Main Thanks Joe AZ
What motor does your Cat have? I am riding the Yamacat Viper with the 1049 and am happy with it.
Hey doucetrr2007, Vipers are a nice sled for sure. 👍🏼The T-cat has the Yamaha 998 turbo. I love the motor in this sled and has the Hurricane Cluster tune. 225, 240 & 270hp at your fingertip. I also have the Hurricane trail muffler sitting in the garage if I want to install it and when you put the muffler on the tunes change to 240, 270 & 300hp 😁 Take Care bud 🤙🏼
@@SometimeIsNow 👍💪🏅
I had a mcx boosted viper,was not too far behind my 9000 cat with 280 precision tune
@@Iluvboostedsleds Gotta luv those boosted sleds !!! 😁
@@SometimeIsNow Remember when we bragged about our Mach Z 800 triples making 159 hp 😅 come a long way
How are the DuPont slides holding up?
Hey buddy, With over 2100 miles this season on them the Dupont slides are still looking new as far as I can see, with full thickness.. IMO, They’re well worth the extra money. I’ll be dropping the rear skid from the Cat soon to get the shocks rebuilt and ready for next season. I’ll make sure i do a video on it when I start the process. 🤙🏼
That damn snowflap from hell strikes again. Loved that dumb and dumber skit. Always some sort of comedy going when we're out on the trails. Making some great memories for sure. Excellent picture quality with your videos. Thanks for another awesome video.
Thanks Jim… It was an amazing week for sure.. Always a great time had up there for sure. 🤙🏼
Makes me want to go sit on my sled and a make motor noises.😢
Sorry... I Can't hear you over my factory 2 step.. Wooshsoooshshooosh. 😂
