i cant see why they cant open the old RR tracks where i ride up. its in the boonies. and if noise is the concern thats BS because the thompson speedway is right down the road and there loud.

my opinion is its all a money game. we just dont give enough to the state of CT. hunters license = tons of money. fishing = tons of money. the thing i dont understand is why they say no to ATV's but i see horses, hikers, mountain bikes, cross country sking, snowmobiles. all those have injuries also but they are aloud to be there.

back in 88 everyone rode there. i remember the DEP riding the tracks in the bronco. there was no way they where catching anyone. now they upgraded to ATV's and planes. they use the planes only once in awile thou. a plane is hard to get away from remember to look up when your running or you will probably get another nice fine

I know,there are a lot of places that we would be able to ride and not hurt or bother a sole.The state pays all this money to stop us and for airplanes,DEP officers,and their own ATV's to chase us with.Compared to opening some woods up,the cost for this would be alot less than airplnes and ATV's.

so wut do u guys say about a ride at north haven it is at the game that place is preety cool we went there today the cyteck guy always chaces us but thats b/ we ride over on the cyteck area. he a cool guy we ushally tease him by making him follow us threw the woods with his jeep he goes everywhere with that thing he said he doesnt care bout quads but alot of ppl on dirtbikes make 2 much noise. we always stop and he comes up 2 us laufin. i live like 2 minutes away from north haven so we sometimes take the roads. That place in north haven (NEAR THE GAME)is where ushally everyone goes but i have a feeling there gunna close it down. in the summer when we go there must b 100 ppl there. i dont like the meriden dump much and the other day the cops busted about 60 ppl there.

I do most of my riding on my fathers farm. You come ride with me before you sell your Quad. I do some riding off of property but I don,t ride like an idiot and make people complain.
There is also a cycle club just down the road. You can ride there if guest of a member. My brother was Pres. of that club and I work with 2 other members. I think I can hook you up.
DON'T SELL! If you do, they win.

Cyteck???Is that who owns that land at the Game?DEP said that if you get the land owners written permission,then it's cool to ride.If that guy that you see in the Jeep is the owner,you should see about getting his written permission.DEP are the ones who kicked us out On Saturday and gave us our tickets=$60

i was once talking to some guy on a banashee that we were riding with and he said someone said some guy in new york owns it. thats y i havnt seen alot of people there lately. u goota know where to park. i think u shuld keep ur recon. where we park the cops can never find us. u got a ticket at the north haven place we always go riding there and they never stopped us. well we could never sell any of our atvs b/ if i didnt ride i would go syco. were selling the polaris's and gettin some kind of honda. if u decide 2 not sell the recon we could go riding some weekend. cops dont really mind . me and my friends ride on the side of the road to ride behing my house (powerlines) and whenever we get stopped they tell us to get out, next time i catch u ill inpound ur quad and one cop said to come back when he was off shift.it all depend on the person.
