Hey all! I ride in Massachusetts, mostly on Cape Cod. Any fellow New Englanders out there in the crowd? Where do you ride? I would like to learn some places to ride in SE Mass, hardly anything out here. :|

Welcome Dr. Zaius. I live in the Southern half of Rhode Island. I can't be much help with the SE Mass area.
:think: Have you given Pilgrim Sands Trail Riders a look yet? Other than that, if you get an ATV plate from MA you can legally ride the State forests.

Hey, I'm in CT up near Hartford, I ride off road at Thomasten Dam in Thomaston. It appears to be the only "legal" trails, tickets start at about $60 for going where you're not supposed to be! If you know of any good trails, I'm ready!

Hello Dr. If you have a plate take 1A south going to Plainville. I can't remember the name of the street but there is an abandoned restaurant on the right. Take that right and head to Aggergate Industries. There is a pit on the right where you park and pick a direction where you want to go. Don't be afraid to ask someone where the trails go. I've covered over 50 miles on every ride out there. It might be worth checking out.

stumblinpete,

I ride in that pit area almost every weekend, truely some great riding. You can go anywhere for there and it never gets old. Last weekend me and my buddy rode all the way from "Simi's" - The actual name of the pits, to the wrentham state forest and we could have gone farther! Once you get into wrentham forest its gets pretty technical and its easy to get lost if you don't know what your doing...Just ask any of the guys from the 03 KPTR Enduro!

I don't know about that...
I've never had any problems with the EP or anything, let alone a $400 ticket.

Hey Viper, getting lost out there is always fun! Next time I want to get over to the hill off of 85 and check out that area.

I think www.nedirtbikes.com, which is down right now, has a few pics of a spot above 495. NEDB also has lots of local footage and a handful of ones from wrentham.

Most of them are in the archives if you can find 'em, here are a few from around here that i know of, most of them are from the last enduro...
