Thanks for a great and very memorable event. Ann and I rolled into home at 8:15 last night... with such a short trip, we could probably be consider "locals", however we had never experienced the North Maine Woods. This was the perfect event to get our feet wet.

Huge thank you to everyone for putting this on! My family had such a great time and what REALY made the trip for us was the people of which some we knew but most we met. Thier kindness towards us and specifically my children was over the top! Sign me up for next year!

The Toltec Coffee Team Just rolled in.
BIG thanks to the organizers, it was a very well run event. Clearly A LOT of planning and pre-run went into it. Great comradery and fire side stories. Looking forward to it next year and any other similar 3/4 night events you all may have up your respective sleeves.
Very glad we stay on the seacoast last night, today we heard stories of horrid traffic from others (non MOTL people) who were southbound last night to Mass. How did others fare?
Today we loaded up a case of Marshall Wharf Brewing "Cant Dog" in Belfast and did a little wheeling near Warren, a great way to wrap up stellar weekend.

Did you like wheeling Mt. Pleasant? I am so happy to hear you/and everyone had a great time. I forgot to mention it earlier but thanks again for the coffee donation.

We rolled into the driveway at about 12:30 last night. The last 2-3 miles were the hardest! The traffic was insane all night, all the stupids were out esp. in Mass. We were just trying to move along at 5 over the limit and stay safe.
Great event, great people. Everyone was very friendly. The people make the event.
Here's my complaint: I wish I was still sitting around the campfire laughing with all of you!
Cheers to all!!

You are very welcome!
Welcoming feedback from people on the new Expedition Blend. We are still tuning the roast and origin of the beans, still sort of a prototype.

1000 miles total on my trip. South bound to CT. was ok. Traffic only added about 1/2 hr. total. Thanks to everyone who made this event happen. It was great to finally see N Maine woods. Always cool meeting new ppl. Thanks to Gary R for the navigating for our group.

Definitely a great time and met some great folks. Our group was super fun and couldn't have asked for better people to explore the North Maine Woods with! Looking forward to more adventures like this. Will take some time to get through all the photos I took but I have some already posted to my instagram so feel free to check that out and add me on there if you have an account!

Thanks again to all the organizers, and all the great people we saw again or met. Great run with a totally different flavor (65 on a dirt road...im thinking about rallying now).
Trip total mileage was 1541....Im guessing the Va guys can easily beat that..lol.
Looking forward to 2015!!!!

Bethany, Tiberius and I would like to thank all the organizers and participants for a great time. We enjoyed ourselves very much. It was good to see old friends and make new ones.
The disco has an exhaust leak and the dash is light up like a X-mas tree but all is good and Bumble Bee performed awesome.
The scenery and wildlife in the North Maine Woods was great. Thank you all for the good times and memories for life.
