I think Balance Rock State Park is the same place as Pittsfield State Forest. When I was ending my ride, I passed the 'Balance Rock.' Very cool rock formation!!!

Hey, Tyme good to see you still posing here, I'm still trying to get some info and I will let you guys know what the word is once I find out. Yeah we should go for a ride some time, if you don't mind riding with a high school kid.

I will ride with anyone...just about anywhere!! Live to Ride, Ride to Live!
The Rappy gets a new rear break rotor (Wave design), new break pads and an oil change tomorrow. After that, i should be ready for the season. I may take it over to the track in wareham and try and dial in the rear suspension...which is long over due.

MA,CT,NY Riders

We should set up a ride for sometime this summer at Pittsfield State Forest... I was thinking on a Saturday leave early morning and ride till whenever.. I know my brother and a couple of our friends would go. It would be cool to meet some of you guys/gals so we could plan for future rides too.. I've only rode there a couple of times, so I'm not real familar with it.

Use this thread to plan it .. Any other ideas??

Scott, I won't be there.. sorry.. Pittsfield is too far... for one.. and two.. I would need to register my quad in this tax hungry state... and that isn't going to happen... No until they start doing something useful for me... There is talk in the news that they are closing even more parks to ATV's /Dirtbikes in Eastern mass (where I live). So Sorry Tax-A-Ch-shiits.. you aren't getting my $40 for 2 year registration (which is actually a deal) nor are you getting the $300 in sales tax money for a vehicle I didn't even purchase in your state.. As far as pittsfield forest goes.. it is mediocre at best... the place gets quite crowded on weekends and the trails are VERY POORLY MARKED.
