SIDNEY, Maine — Maine State Police are investigating a fatal motorcycle crash that occurred Saturday evening on Interstate 95 in Sidney.

According to officials, on Saturday, April 18, 2026, at approximately 5:36 p.m., Maine State Police received multiple reports of a crash involving two motorcycles traveling northbound on I-95 near mile marker 120.

Preliminary findings indicate that a 2006 Harley Davidson operated by 61-year-old Adam Robinson of Sangerville and a 2008 Harley Davidson operated by 28-year-old Jayson Lancaster of Carmel were traveling together in the northbound lane. After passing another vehicle, both motorcycles merged back into the right lane.

Investigators reported that Robinson’s motorcycle appeared to have experienced a mechanical defect that caused the brakes to seize. Robinson was ejected from the motorcycle and pronounced deceased at the scene.

Lancaster, who was operating in close proximity to Robinson, was unable to avoid the crash and was also ejected from his motorcycle. He was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries.

Anyone with information related to the crash is asked to contact Trooper Keenan Blier at 207-973-3700, extension 9.

Sidney Rescue and the Maine Department of Transportation assisted the Maine State Police at the scene.
