    List of places to ride

    don't recall seeing a list of the legal places to ride around the area.
    Maybe we can compile a list and make it a sticky??

    Only place I know-
    Hodges Village, Oxford MA. Off of Clara Barton Rd.

    If you search for NH Trails Bureau, you'll find a list for NH. I think it's got restrictions listed too...

    I'd definitely do it in a non-seo section of the site or a part that isn't crawled, fwiw.

    Re: List of places to ride

    such a depressing subject because the opportunities just become less and less

    but legally, for MA...

    1.) there are 6 state forests in addition to Hodges (which you posted) that are open for OHV

    2.) for motocross and closed tracks, there are Crow Hill (Templeton, MA), Capeway Rovers (Middleborough, MA), Southwick, and the flat track up in Winchendon (which also has endurocross events)

    all the sites are listed, and google map'd on thumpertalk's Where2Ride section

    3.) not posted on Thumpertalk, or anywhere else are Turkey Runs, Hare Scrambles, and Enduro runs through NETRA. Most of them require a street plate, but a few Turkey Runs per year are all on private lands, so you can run your yellow plated bike

    4.) there are a couple of illegal, but tolerated, places to ride that I don't know about along with private land (AND AS ALWAYS, DO NOT POST FOR EVERYONE TO READ) PM Paul_ED, jettajay, and R7

    5.) if putting a track system qualifies it as a snowmobile, it will open up a lot of riding areas so long as there's 4" of snow

    6.) and lastly, I don't know if it's legal to ride on lakes and ponds (I called the town recreation department about a local one, and they said no), but the rules for most public ones say "(...in regards to ice) Snowmobiles, motorcycles, iceboats or any other winter recreational vehicles shall exercise reasonable caution and keep a reasonable distance from all persons...". If it were illegal, why would that rule be there?

    Driving over Lake Quinsigamond right now, you could definitely see snowmobile tracks going across the lake.

    and I agree, we should get a dirty bastards stick thread with:
    -where to ride (and a warning not to post public, tolerated, illegal areas)
    -I want to get my first dirtybike, what should I buy?
    -what should I get for gear?
    -I thought this section was for dirty ass porn. Can you link me to the appropriate site?

    Re: List of places to ride

    Pachaug State Forest in Ct, 62 mile loop but you need a street registered bike.

    Maine, 6,000+ miles of designated ATV trails for quads, less for bikes but don't know the exact numbers.

    Buy a house with some land and make your own trails or track
