Figure I would share a video form "Crossing Newfoundland By ATV" of their September 2018 trip.

This year there was a Zforce 1000 and two Zforce 500 on this trip.

One of the Zforce 500 suffered a crank failure on this trip, it was later repaired under warranty.

The attached video is #6 of 7, in this video they ran into some mud. You can go to East Coast ATV YouTube channel if you would like to watch the full 2018 trip (as well as 2017, 2016, 2015)

This trip across Newfoundland is getting quite popular, in the last year folks from Maine, New York state and Michigan have completed this trip.

There are six off us going over this August to do the cross island trip.

Damn I want to do that! It's the old Newfy Bullet line for the most part, right?

You are right Glenlivet, we get on the rail bed in Argentia crossing the island to Port Aux Basque. It's in Corner Brook where  the old rail bed was taken up and you have to get trucked around (15km) or take the bypass trail which is not very good. The name "Newfie Bullet" was a slang name given to the train by soldiers travelling on it during the Second World War.

Nice video @Bish .  Quick tip:  you can use the YouTube button when editing a post and simply type the video's URL in between the tags that are inserted into the text.  I took the liberty on this one to do it just to show you how.
