Crossing Newfoundland By ATV 2023 - Part 1

For 2023 we rode our ATVs onto the Marine Atlantic ferry from Nova Scotia to Newfoundland Cananda and spend 10 days riding over 1000 km (600 miles) on the West Coast. In this series you'll see some of the most beautiful scenery imaginable and all accessible by ATV. In Part 1 you'll see the road trip to the Marine Atlantic Ferry to Newfoundland, riding from Port Aux Basques to Stephenville, and Stephenville to Corner Brook. Scenic stops at the Tabletop Mountains, and we drive through a crazy rainstorm in Serpentine Lake.

    I was recently back home to stephenville. I bought a used pioneer 700 and put 500 km on it in a week. Went out to serpentine , corner brook and a night in gallants at a friends cabin. Enjoyed every minute . I could see in your video a small glimpse of the house I grew up in behind the dream catcher . It was called whites hotel back then. Great memories growing up in that neighborhood. I always enjoy watching your travel adventures . 👍.

    Awesome video. One thing I’ve learned is have a way to patch your tires when traveling on the old railway bed. Some places have rail spikes laying around. If you make a trip to central, the snowmobile and atv club are trimming trees and grading the old railway bed. From glennwood to Gander is a good ride.

    We were there for the first time in August. You were a few days ahead of us, but we kept track of your group during our trip by checking out your updates on FB. Totally enjoyed our trip and we will be making plans very shortly to explore the West Coast in 2025! Was totally the trip of a lifetime for us! Glad we got to see NL from East to West, but now we plan to have a great time exploring the things we didn't get the chance to see. on the western side. Thanks again for all of your helpful hints and the info you provided for first-timers! :)

    Great video Patrick (I tell a great story with great photography and editing). As for the ride - We both have the same machine with similar mileage - and my experience with some mechanical challenges (and I see yours too) suggests that we're both going to have to invest in a newer one soon... You go first!

    We use Sena Bluetooth headsets. I use the SMH-10 model, and some of the other guys use the 30k or 50s. The higher the number the higher the price, sound quality, range etc. If I were buying a new set now I'd probably get the 30. The range is decent and they will disconnect when you get too far away from each other and reconnect automatically when you get closer. They should last all day depending on how much you talk. I usually get at least 10 hours. You can charge them when driving if you need to. Hope that helps, Patrick.
