looking for places in CT to ride
i like to ride on sundays and tired of the same old farms and yards to ride in ,the state of ct sucks they have designated trails on state land for dirtbikes to ride but the guys on atv's can only ride on frozen lakes that have a boat launch, that not riding at all in my book. maybe someone has some land that i can ride on? respectfull rider looking to meet up with others that share the same problem with ct laws and are running out places to ride. wish they would open places for us to ride if not we are forced to ride out of state, if anyone can help or have any ideas  get back to me thanks.

Yea, other states offer MUCH better places to ride, unless you have access to private land... When CT gets its head outta its ass there will be at least four good sized parcels open to ATV riding... I doubt its gonna happen under liberal Malloy... Just this last week he is moving to stop Fish & Phesant stockings...
I have sa good friend sitting on a "board" working with the state to get these propeties opened. The hang up is they want reg $$ FIRST... the argument is show whats avalible to start with small charge to use land THEN once riders see whats aval;ible they will be more willing to reg here to use state lands to ride on. The liberals are blocking it every chance they get...
I go to Maine and enjoy the hell outta myself!

I did a little research on MA. There are trails in Lee, great Barrington and Pittsfield that open the first of May. I think you need to register in MA and get a daily pass that is limited to 50 riders a day. And get this the pass is FREE! imagine that! I would love to get a group together and try some of these trails. I also have to find out how to register in MA.(That might be more of an adventure than the riding!)

Pittsfield is the only place that you have to obtain a permit. They limit the permits to 50/day. I think they have only maxed out once. The other locations do not require a permit and are free (as well as Pittsfield) but you have to be registered. Out of state is $30/yr. Pittsfield is a nice place to ride.
Beartown will charge you $5 to park...have good trails... a bit 'technical' as we like to say... meaning I wouldn't make it your first ATV ride but if you have some experience, no problem.
October Mtn is good... a bit rocky but lots of trails.
Tolland State Forrest (green Bridge) too rocky for me but lots of people go there and they ride the utility lines. It is closest to CT.

Yes mass is looking very good for riding. I've been to lee once it was rocky just like Ct trails but it was still fun. I have heard good things about october mountain trail system. I think this year I will get my mass registration. I did some searching about Ct trails and apparently the state received money to get something going and they used it for stuff that had nothing to do with O.H.V. trails or property's
