Giood Way To Spaulding TPK

[HBerry]

Not really a group ride or event but I figured I would post it here:

Does anyone know a good way to get to Rt 125 or the spaulding turnpike from the nashua area, but to aviod rt 3 and 101?

Basically I would like to take back roads all the way up there

This site has all diffent options for searching out a route.

I found directions using that, but not the back ways? Anything special I have to do?

[rjh200]

Sorry, I know there is a way on there to get directions using only secondary roads but I can't seem to remember how

[HBerry]

Map quest used to have it too but it appears they no longer do? I'm happy to see I can spell the word good

[HBerry]

Okay I found a way...I think.... 3A to Route 27 to 125

[Stoneman]

PM me WHERE you wanna go and I'll see if I can hook ya up...

[Stoneman]

Didn't feel like waiting. Not sure where on 'the spaulding' you're looking to get to, but try this...

...route 111 to 111A to 107 to 43 to 202A...

It'll take ya right into Rochester (NH). Some slow going spots along the way, but that's to be expected this time a year. And watch the road signs closely! Summa them are small and hidden...

[HBerry]

Thank you, Im looking to get to Milton Mills, exit 18, I was looking to avoid Route 3 and 101 because I'm not confident on the highway enough. I usually pick up the spaulding where it intersects 125 down past Lee

[Stoneman]

Okay, wait a minute! WHY are you going to Milton? NOT to look at a VFR, is it?

Try my route to Rochester, then grab the Spaulding from there. You'll miss the tolls too...

[HBerry]

No not to look at any bikes, I just bought one!

My girlfriend has a lake house right over the border in Acton Maine

Okay, I'll let it slide...

While you're in the area, check out route 153. Take it all the way up to Conway...

If the li'l lady has internet access, shoot me a PM. Probably heading out with the missus one day this weekend for some twisty fun...

[HBerry]

Hopefully the little lady lets me take the bike up this weekend! Internet access is highly questionable, I might be able to string something up with my laptop and cell phone though.

I have a nice route. I do half that ride every day. These are going to be very back roads. I'll PM ya the details.

[stoinkythepig]

If you stretched a string from Nashua to Rochester, my route would come as close as possible to following it with only one exception and that's to avoid 4 traffic lights in a row in Raymond.

[HBerry]

stoinky thanks for the directions!

[HBerry]

Ok I guess Im not bringing the bike up this weekend, too much stuff (and by stuff I mean beer) to bring up. Hopefully next weekend!

The biggest problem this weekend will be traffic.
