Default who is riding dirtbikes now?

I've been going out every Sunday.

Looking for some new places to ride. I used to ride at a private motocross track but the guy knocked it down because of people tresspassing and being idiots. You used to pay $10 for the day.

Anyone got any nice spots that enviromental won't mess with ya?

I ride a 2 wheeler so anything thats not sandy would be nice.

Been riding on sundays lately. Mostly just ride the 4 wheeler these days due to being and old man and it goes through the swamps a lot better. Good riding behind my house and it leads to rocky woods. Do a google map of rocky woods st in taunton and you can see it.
real tough on a dirt bikes very technical single track with lots of rocks, wet rocks, water etc. Power lines nearby are pretty good too. you can ride from swansea to plainvill on the high tensions or take a detour on the old rail bed and go up to foxborough, middleboro, or easton. dont usually see any DEM in any of these places. Freetown state forest used to be good but you had to register your bike to ride there. F that -- I refuse to register my dirt bike or four wheeler so they can charge me more excise taxes and reg fees every year.

I'm looking for motocross type riding, something with a track. Driving around the trails in the forrest gets boring, plus I hate the big rocks all over the place.

It's just south of allentown, and it's a PPL substation right off my property. We only take 4 strokes out though, so as not to **** people off. Been a while since I've been out there, but now is the perfect time to re-open trails with all of the stuff dead.

Haven't been riding lately.. the bike is more known as a pit bike now...

Ted maybe one weekend we'll have head out and tear it up a bit, which is better for your rides? because I have a 2WD and a 4WD quad.... If not too crazy the misses would probably join on the 4WD one.... Of course if that was an open invite, if not disregard the post! LoL

Hell ya open invite. the more riders the better. I ride a eiger 4x4 but you can get around on a 2 wd if you stay away from the stupid deep stuff. I like to go in the morning and get back in time to put on the pats game in the garage while having a few cold beverages cleaning up the bikes.

Even LOUD four strokes don't get attention like the sound of a 2-stroke bike. You should stop out sometime.
