If you can you should try and hit Route 77.......that's a great road too just off 13

Funny you mention that!!! I've seen both ends of it, and it looks SICK from the map view. I'm almost thinking of reversing the route to start at 130, go up 13 and catch 77 on the tail and if I remember correctly it'll drop you in the Concord area on/around Rte 9.

Great idea!

what's the speeds going to be since you listed beginner to expert levels

The roads listed are posted between 35-50, (In an effort to protect the innocent) I have (seen them) run them with 'newbs' at 60+ without a problem. The roads are 2-way state highways so plenty wide for newbs to ride along.

If anybody wants to ride up, I'm going to be at Honey Dew in Wakefield at 11:30am, take off at 11:45 to be in Derry before 1pm

I'm planning on taking Haverhill St. up as far as possible and then cutting over to 28. If anyone has a nicer route than 28 from that point, I'd take it.

Here's the route I'm planning

Danno, is that the Honeydew by the lake where the cruisers congregate? Id be up to ride up with you.

Yup, the cruisers congregate conspicously and the sportsters sometimes swarm.

I've got a blue 01 SV w/a big ol Givi on the back.

If you guys are hitting 77 you gotta rip down 149, I rode it with a friend yesterday and it's good to go. I'm shooting a pistol match in the morning and will try to haul up to derry by one, and I just got a new hoodie that matches my bike cause it's goin to be gorgeous out.

i'd be game but i don't think my license will agree... just got a ticket today for filtering past stopped traffic up to a red light to make a right turn

for "filtering" what else. my guess is lane split.

whatever it is i bet he can't say that that cop is cool.

[e30addict]

Awww, that sux! I started it as late as I can for a Saturday. We need to be back at my place for 6 or 7ish for the after party :-(

I tear up this area every weekend... you'll need to come out sometime and rip it with us!

I'm not your typical rule/warning Nazi. But since you'll be in my backyard I'll throw out a couple of things.

As usual, be chill around the towns. But more specifically, the center of New Boston, and Mont Vernon on route 13. There WILL be police at the center of town doing their job, especially in MV.

Also, last year Milford was leading the crusade against loud bikes. Keep the rpm's low through the oval if you've got aftermarket exhaust.

Have fun all, wish I could join you.

HAHAH.. thanks for the heads up. This ride in particular is an annual ride for my guys... I ride it several times a year so we're pretty familiar with the speed nazi's on that route.

That is, however the first i've heard of the noise issue in Milford... I'll have to check into that, although, none of the regulars are very loud at all.

Wish you could make it!

Cool, didn't want to sound like a pain in the ass.

An article about Milford:

They were very aggressive last year on the noise. It started with mostly Harley's being targeted, but it spread to anything on two wheels as the season progressed. I don't know how it will be this year but it's at least good to be aware of. Have a good ride.
