    Shirley you can't be serious.

    In eastern mass, you've got hodges and Freetown for public lands. If you want motocross, there's middleboro or winchtucky. There are a few private tracks and loops, but you hafta get with the in crowd. (I'm not)
    If you want to expand your horizons, there's clough in nh, and if street regd pachaug in ct.

    Pilgrim sands trail riders seems to be the most active club in the area. They have their own race series held almost entirely on private property. It's the cheapest racing I've found (after your first event) and the people involved are stellar. They do a few 'rides' too, but the concentration seems to focus on the series right now. (that could be because I'm new, and the season just started)

    I was told it's legal to ride the powerlines in Shirley as long as you're not within 200' of a house, but I'm not sure if that's true.

    It's false and I was stopped for doing such.
