banshee370 Posted December 1, 2003 Report Share Posted December 1, 2003 Does anyone know any good places to ride in Connecticut, the only places i know of are, Connecticut river motocross track, and this Place on Day Hill Road in Windsor The only place LEGAL is Rocky Hill MX track (after you pay) I have been told about a place in Thomaston (thomaston dam and is owned by US corps of engineers) There used to be a state forrest out on the R.I border, but that has since been shut down too. I have been told there there is some riding out on the NY border by New Milford, but again thats illegal too. Where in CT are you from, and is that your shee in your avitar?

bansheeVR4 Posted December 2, 2003 Report Share Posted December 2, 2003 I used to live in New Milford and there are a good amount of places there are the resoviors but I think they are being built on. Candlewood Lake is sweet during the winter when it is frozen but make sure you have studs or you won't go anywhere. The power lines aren't to bad. I can find out more from my friends but i moved from there to FL about a year ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banshee370 Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 fel0n: Thompson dam is off limits to atv's but when has that ever stopped anyone before? There is NO legal land in Ct... and I dont think thats going to change anytime soon. Your not to far from me by the way.... maybe 10 minutes Great looking shee too! You should check out some places in Mass to ride... October mtn state forrest (near Pittsfield), Monson Mass, Montague Mass. Southwick Mass (not the track). I also just found out that there are a bunch of guys that set up a 1/4 mile strip in Springfield by some old shopping mall (boston road) every sunday to race. I think they are now done for the year due to the FRIGGIN cold weather. There is also some trails out behind my house, but again thats illegal too (catch me if you can) hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton eyed Joe Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 Not to stray off subject, but DAMN that is sad to hear you have no legal places to ride in the whole state. Why is that? Any particular reason, or just because The Powers That Be said so? Any legislation to open up legal riding areas or trails? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcaf29 Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 Uppity Conn. people make those shitty rules, and they are following suit here in MA. There are no longer any legal riding spots east of Worcester county. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan: Its because we live with a bunch of tree hugging hippie mother f0king idiots. They have actually passed a law in the state that makes it illegal to ride on YOUR OWN LAND. (noise, nusance) I heard a few months ago that there was a proposed plan to open some state land for riding.. and that was shut down FAST! Some old MX guy at the southern end of the state had roughly 200 acres that had a small MX track and a shitload of trails. He decided to make it an "off road park". Before he was even open to the public, the state came in and "tried" to shut him down. When they didnt have a leg to stand on, they decided to block the "private" road to his track. Yes thats ILLEGAL. They started giving him all kinds of shit as with anyone that was riding there. They started handing out tickets for un-registered atv's even though they were on private property. Let's just say that his dream of owning an offroad track is now just a memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
