The old Little Monadnock Family Trails roads are still mostly accessible as well and there's a lot of stuff on the powerlines over there that most deem still rideable (despite the fact LMFT shut down several years ago).
Also check out Flatlander on advrider. It hits a bunch of class 6 roads in this area, everything from mild to wild.
Well that stinks about the private land under the power lines. That’s the kind of stuff I want to ride and there is a long stretch of it I’d like to explorer. I grew up on dirt roads in VT and I’m sorry to say those are kinda boring to me. I like the kind of roads in Barre Ma that you posted pictures of on advrider.
I’ll keep looking around for more options.

Flatlander and Tomato Trail are both decently local, they have some really good stuff. If you want technical run Tomato North, it's got a really good mix of easy and technical dirt.
Also if you're on FB, join the New England Dual Sport Riders group. The guy who runs that group owns Field and Forest Rec who does NEAR every year. There's a shit load of good class 6 roads within a 30 minute ride of Jaffrey, you just gotta kinda know about them.

What are these Barre, MA roads? I ride there frequently

I assume he's talking about my pics of Tomato Trail, which goes around and through Rutland State Park.

Ah, well I probably know all those roads then. I’ll have to check out the route, I think I have it downloaded onto my gps already.

Re: Where did you ride today?
Found a Corbin seat for my bike on marketplace for $20. I’ve never used one so I figured why not try it out.
Seller was close to Malibu so after I flicked the tie down and said “that’s not going anywhere” I got to enjoy the Malibu canyons and then a nice cruise lanesplitting down PCH.

Re: Where did you ride today?
I took a trip to motorsports international to check out the new kawi 40th color scheme. They had a zx14 in stock and it is sexy af. If it was a zx6 or zx4rr i have no doubt i would have bought it just for display.

Too much salt kicking around for me. Well...actually, lack of a proper place to wash it during the winter is what shuts me down.

I've washed at the car wash 3 miles away, but even in 3 miles it's grungy again. Heated garage with hot water and a drain. or maybe a wet/dry vac

Re: Where did you ride today?
Took the little donkey out for a ride. It's been a month since I bought it, and I must say it is a fun little machine!
But when I got home, I decided to take the other green bike out for a spin.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...34d9c184e6.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...1c2db8e32e.jpg
