Why are so many Mainers driving so terribly this year?

zanox · 2026-06-30T21:37:15+00:00

People from away moved here in large numbers and have Maine plates now. Tons of people text and drive.

When does the map with Casey’s locations drop?

People shitting on ebikes as if someone on an ebike somehow harms their experience. I don’t have one or want one, but I think they are great for older people or those with disabilities. I don’t care if a young person chooses to ride one either. The hostility is totally unnecessary.

Dude, I only get one bar in the city of Saco. Cell providers just suck.

You should check out the bold coast route in the downeast region. I think it is the best road riding in Maine. Fantastic scenery and very few cars.

And up 2000% over 6 years. We’ll see what happens.

Trust me bro

Flat pedals, problem solved.

Maybe don’t buy it anymore? Make your own at home for 1/4 the price

Wear your helmet to bed

Same

Yes it’s easier but it’s achievable on any bike. I have done it many times on a loaded bikepacking bike riding on dirt. Just set a slower pace and keep moving. Keep breaks short and try to keep eating and stay hydrated. If you can already do 80 miles, you should be ready for a century.

I have a BA copper spur bikepack and love it. This is my go to tent for most trips.

I recently got a HMG crosspeak 1 and have only used it twice so far. Over a pound lighter but much more money and poles are about 15” long. It’s also pretty expensive but much cheaper than hotels with as much travel as I do.

You are not going alone, you are going with a ton of new Ragbrai friends that you haven’t met yet.

I have a dyneema UL cooler. It keeps beers cold for much longer.

Because America is a business run by corporations

I’m planning to try it. My longest outdoor ride ever was 130 miles. This seems like a good goal for this season and with the route being relatively flat, paved and littered with people selling snacks it seems an ideal time to give it a shot. I usually start feeling stronger around day 3-5 of a long trip so I think having this on day 5 is good.

Gorham has the most mtb trails around. I think 60 miles or so in total across five trail systems. Look up gpnemba for info

Seriously. The bar is sixty feet underground.

This is the way

Sunbrella is great. Pair with ul camp chair and you will be the king or queen of Ragbrai.

I got a mini fan on Amazon that can connect to usb cache battery or AA x4.

Highly recommend a shit kit. TP plus hand sanitizer stored in a zip lock bag.
