Need a bit of help from top right corner Brats please. Traveling from Des Moines’s IA to Madawaska Maine to complete my 4th corner of 4 Corners of America Motorcycle ride. Less than 200 riders world ride accomplish this in 21 days or less. Fastest routes, bot most science route.
Then after the ride is complete I’ll have some visiting time working my way back down to TN.
Looks like Concord New Hampshire is a pivot point to head up “THE” highway up to Madawaska.... similar to Hwy 1 down to southern most point Buoy on Key West FL

Hi Pat,
Fastest way to the tip of ME is to get to rte 95 north of Boston, and zip up 95. Then you can take the scenic route down Rte 1 to the Keys. But, Rte 1 is no longer very scenic in much of ME so take the parallel scenic rtes (like rte 1A) whenever possible. Usually the fastest way to Rte 95 N from the west is Rte 84 from CT, to 90 in MA to 295 to 495 to 95N. Going up to Concord then across NH is longer & usually slower.
Let me know when you are crossing the NH/ME border and we can meet up for lunch or a snack.

Hey Pat, did you really make it to the NW corner without going to Neah Bay? Im just messing! Im following along on your journey, what a great adventure.
I just sold my Harley and put a deposit down on a 2022 Chief dark horse, and in the meantime have been riding the wife's Indian while I wait. I was tired of all the trash talk from Bri. Too many break downs and repairs while her Indian has been flawless.
Good luck buddy ride safe.

95 north to Maine 11 in the Sherman Maine area looks best
looks like a very wet days ride Sunday or a 2am takeoff to stay in front sleep and Sunday lower traffic looks like the call |

HI Paul,
WOW, I saw somewhere that Pat was going to (thinking of) doing this ride but that was the last I saw or heard. So . . . how, where are you following him? Would love to catch up. Don't know that I would do this kind of a ride, Not into the crazy fast timeline, but am again toying with the Run to the Wall for next year.

| Hi Harvey - Pat has been posting on Facebook when time allows. He is making the miles and having to deal a lot with Mother Nature. Now in the northeast, and all the traffic. Perseverance... getting to all 4 corners of the US in 21 days. I like to ride, but that is serious hardcore. |
