    went on my first long solo ride today

    Well, woke up a lil late and ended up missing a few rides, and the hello ladies ride was canceled so I decided to go out solo.

    So I took the CBR up I-93 from Stoneham to Route 101 in NH to Route 28. Stopped for breakfast, then got back on to Route 11 until I hit Route 3. Then hopped back on I-93 North to Lincoln NH. From there I rode the Kanc 3 1/2 times. Not to much traffic today so it wasn't bad. Then I found the infamous Hurricane Mountain Rode off of Route 16 just after North Conway (got air on my bike for the first time) kindy hairy. Then I continued on Route 16 to Pinkham's Notch and then turned around and went back down Route 16 Until I hit I-95 and took that back down into Mass. From there I went and watched a friends soccer game in Wenham or Hamilton off of Route 28 and then back down I-95 into Stoneham.

    450 miles roughly. Wow am I wiped and looking forward to exploring more of Northern NH next time....

    That's a nice loop!! The I-93 and Rte 16 slabs are a bit rough. We try to do a White Mountain loop once a month, would love to show you around up there and some of the nicer local roads to get up there and save you some of that slab time!!! Watch for the posts or shoot me a PM and we'll figure out a weekend when you're not on duty!!

    450 miles, first long ride, on a CRB1000! Wiped indeed! Lucky you can still type! Oh, to be 23 again and know what I know now...you youngsters would stand a chance!

    Nice ride...nice write up!

    It is great area. When near Holderness check out rt 175 which drops you onto 3 in N woodstock. It parallels 93 and is just another nice road, less the yard salers.

    If you continue under I93, Rt. 112 (Kancamagus) meets Rt. 118. It's nearly the same and far less traveled since it doesn't come with a catchy name.
