    new to ATV's

    picked up a quad over the weekend and was looking for 'legal' riding areas around Nashua. I have been riding up in Berlin, NH but having a local place to go would be nice. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Not to much down South anymore in NH.

    Lots of the clubs have folded

    There is a trail head up behind the OTB place north of NHMS on 106.

    About 380 square miles of trails a little North of WRJ in VT.

    Your NH registration is honored in VT now, so you would just need your VASA plate.

    Head a bit farther north into Maine. Last time I checked there was over 3,000 miles of ATV trails. Fuel stops limit how far you can travel

    Edit... what did you buy for a quad?

    Re: new to ATV's

    I picked up a z400 sport .... not a 4x4 so not looking for extreme trails.

    So Timmy.. am looking at 55.00 for the Vt reg and trail fees? Not too bad I guess.

    Do you have to register in Maine to ride there as well?

    Sport quads are more fun on the trails IMO. I've got an 06 Raptor 700, it goes anywhere
    Maine ORV sticker is $68 per year and does not reciprocate with any other state

    Re: new to ATV's

    New Durham Valley ATV has a decent handful of trails in the New Durham/Alton area. Plus there's a lot of private, less publicized trails that are legal to ride on in that same general area. Probably about an hour from Nausea...

    Re: new to ATV's

    thanks for all the helpful info.... Mike..I am adding a heavy duty belly pan this weekend to deal with the rocks, hopefully they will not be to much of an issue.
    Now all I need is to find a small trailer and I will be all set!

    that was my issue with the z400. i had aftermarket skids from pro armor and i still kept bashing the swing arm skid into the rear sprocket.
