I 95 to Gray, take Rt 26 into Bethel. Maine Staties trap along 95 at the York tolls, where the limit drops to 55 in Portland and usually around Biddeford. They probably won't stop you for anything less than 76. NH staties will most likely let you go for 79 and below unless you are driving like an idiot. Once you are on 26, slow down in Gray, Oxford and Paris as they like to tag the out of staters. Once the limit is 55 you can usually safely do 65. Local limits (i.e 25-35 tend to be more strictly enforced.

I'm heading up there tonight too... I'll be in the canvas beige B6... keep an eye out.

My buddy got pulled over on the Maine Turnpike for doing 79 in a 65 a couple weeks ago so use the cruise control (watch where it drops to 55 through Portland).

Don't do what his girlfriend did about a month ago... (54 in a 35 through one of the small towns) either.
