My wife and I went to Maine for a four day weekend last week.

We discovered some great roads, some good roads and some must avoids. Figured I
would
briefly share them with you.

Roads to avoid:

Route 302 from Barre to Portland, it took us 6 hours to go 200 miles!!! The
traffic and
tourists were horrible.

Almost all of Route 1 in Maine, especially in Freeport, Camden, and Wiscasset.
We found a
good way to get around Camden, take a left on Main Street in Rockport, at the
end take a
left, at the end take right on 235 to Hope. Then quick right on 105, then
follow 52 to
Belfast, it's a nice ride and cuts out a lot of traffic.

Great rides.

Rangeley Lakes are amazing, lots of sweepers, 55 MPH speed limits and no traffic
or LEOs.
Be aware there is limited gas so fill up before your leave the last major town.
Route 17
from Mexico to Rangeley Lake is awesome, it is 40 miles of one sweeper after
another with
no traffic. Twist the throttle and enjoy.

Route 32 from outside of Augusta to Permaquid Point is a great road to the
coast. Lots of
good turns but a little bumped up and there is some traffic. Come back out via
130 to
129 to Damariscotta.

Route 175 to Route 176 in Blue Hill is a great coastal ride. Fantastic road and
very little
traffic for the coast, plus Blue Moose in Blue Hill is a great restaurant.
