You can ride at Uxbridge MX practice track. www.uxbridgemsp.com Bring your big bad 400ex and we will see if it can eat my Z400 (or just my dust). LOL

PM me and I can give you some directions to some good trails in Central and Western MA where it is ok to ride.

Hey Quadzuki - Where are you riding in Holland? We usually ride in Ware, Palmer and the surrounding areas, unless we head out to the state forests...

Barkbiterds, No where to really ride in Holland(until the lake freezes), it sounds like we usually go to the same areas that you go. We ride the state forests until the close up and then spend most of our time in Palmer. I didnt see any DS650s out on the trails last year, did you just get it?

I picked it up in January so it's logged a lot of time on the trails this year. A little track time in Uxbridge too. We usually leave from a field just over the Palmer line @ Mass Central, cross over 32 then down into West Warren. Cross over Old Warren Road, under the Pike and end up at the Quaboag River and 67. Other times we head up over the back of Coy Hill, ride down to Janine's for lunch and head back. We usually don't see anybody else out when we go, we usually will meet on Sunday mornings. You weren't out at the ride for Molly Bish at the Wickaboag Sportsmens Club were you? There were a couple z's there, but other than that I haven't seen any on the trail.

No, I havent ridden my Z around here yet. I got it May 30, and have been riding all summer in Tolland S.F., Granville and October Mtn. I'll be in Palmer soon enough, we usually come in from 67, theres a parking area under the Mass. Pike.

Barkbiterds, Wheres this Mass central place in Palmer? I've parked under the pike and ridden from there as well. but have only been a couple times. Not to familiar with the trails. A friend took me there who knew the trails we were crossing roads went over the river some rail tracks and did some great riding.

There a small dirt road/entryway off 32 right before the Ware/Palmer town line if going from Palmer to Ware. It'll be on your left. We've never been bothered parking in the field and riding from there. You head back out to 32 and cross, there a trail head right there leading to lots of trails. We've made it to the power lines and that spot under the Pike on 67 (they're about 1/2 apart) and the problem we've had is figuring out where/how to cross the river. I took a drive out there last weekend and found King Bridge Road (or something like that) that crosses the river and then it looks like you jump on the tracks. Am I right? Then from there you can hit the small sandpit owned by Palmer Paving, and it looks like more trails off the right hand side of that road??? Could use a little help here to extend our rides... The ride from 32 to 67 and back with some playing on side trails is about 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

I'm not sure about the name of the road, but thats how he took me over the river. He also took me to the sand pit and one other area over the rail tracks but we road the tracks some before we came out to the road, which is a dirt road that goes by an old abandoned house and just keeps on going up and up til you get to a huge rock at the top you can drive onto and rest. What a view.
