New Hampshire White Mountains
Friday August 3 to Sunday August 5
Great riding and scenery in the Northern New Hampshire White Mountains
Beautiful wilderness areas to ride and enjoy. You will love the roads.
Routed Ride by New Hampshire Native RandyO on Saturday
Great dual sport street and dirt road ride on Saturday. Dirt roads not trails. All fun, Reasonable pace, no worries, no one left behind.
Ride up from Massachusetts on Friday, PM richw if interested. If weather is perfect I may hit Mount Washington Auto Road on the way home Sunday... scary fun.
We had 13 in Vermont last year. Everyone had a great time and we are a little smarter this year.
MAKE YOUR OWN RESERVATIONS THEN POST UP
Camping at Twin River Campground, Bath NH
Twin River Campground
Great campsite and cabins with amenities, pool, river etc. It is on the Amanoosac river trail system but they seem to be d*cks about an expensive NH trail pass.
We have designated the rustic area campsites for our area they are numbered H15 to H21. There can be 2 bikes in a campsite at %30 a night so you can split $60 for the weekend. PM me if by yourself I will try to pair you up to handle $$ etc.
There are rustic cabins C5,C6,C7,C8 (bed and A/C no bathroom) these are 3 day minimum for $200. Please discuss bodies etc. with the campground.
There are plenty of other campsites if these fill up.
Motel at Nootka Lodge, Bath NH
www.nootkalodge.com
3 miles from campground
Looks like a nice place at a reasonable cost.

It is not that I should win it is that you should lose
It is not that I succeed it is that you fail

If i could afford a second set of rims and some better offroad tires id be in on this, id like to try my hand as some mild offroading..but i dont think my PR2s would appreciate it much
I'd like to get involved. I'll let you know for sure in a few days. <eamwhile during the riding loop please think about stopping in Stowe Me. at the Stowe corner store. My sister owns the place and the food is awesome.

These guys need to weigh in for sure.. but I think you would probably be okay on ST tires like that. Sandwich Notch definitely seems like the worst of it. Tripoli is dirt, but cake.
Although I could be completely full of shit. I still need to shoot Sandwich Notch at some point myself.
You know its the north country when location is given in lat/long.
DIRT ROADS NOT TRAILS
There might be irregular surface but still driven every day by cars and trucks
Assuming its not raining then any tire except slicks that has at least 1/3 life left, will be fine

I am very interested in this. Nice way to break in my new Tiger 800, although it is the non-XC. Would this type of ride be okay for an ADV newbie?
I'd be so totally in if I had one of them there "adventure" bikes...![]()
These are dirt roads driven daily by locals. Some ruts and washboards but all negotiable.
Really any Universal motorcycle would be fine..sportbikes and cruisers not so much

maybe I'm pessimistic right now, at this time, I don't even know if I'll have a bike on the road by August, the economy better turn around in a hurry

Waz wrong with the bike?
I can maybe take a swing at doing that run solo, post up feedback both here and on stromtroopers.
You'll be fine. I will make an HD ride planner route of Randy's proposed route

I accept your correction
Your Not a Native of a New England town until your Grand Mother was born there.
You can live there 37 years and they will still tell you you live in the old Wilson place.... they were nice.
Randy... Get your wire harness, I am away this weekend at Berkshire, and working but there may be chance
I could zip up in early June and slap it in, assuming you have tools other than your es wing

at least I'm past that point and moved here from northern VT instead of being a masshole like most immigrants and have been in town longer than 75% or more of the current residents so most people don't know I'm not a native
after my meeting yesterday at my dealer, I have a little more confidence in getting the bike fixed
I would like to run the route, and maybe tweak it a bit to get off Rt 2 and 302 as much as possible in the afternoon portion, I'd like to keep the route to town roads and national forest roads and off the numbered routes as much as possible
