The Offical Pachaug Trail Thread

Anyone ridding this sunday? I'm going to be their by 11ish and would be nice to follow someone that knows the area.

3500...dammm that guy scored a deal...what year was it Ed...what you getting next?

It was a 2009 with 4100 miles. Looking for a 2011-12 530exc or 300xcw with low time. need to plate it.

Synthetic oil seems to weep out of the seals more than dyno oil. Nothing to worry about.

Some raw footage from my first NECC Hare Scramble. I raced C-Open class today thinking it would start me off behind the C-200 class (I thought that's were C-Open started at Barnes Way) and I wouldn't get stuck behind the C-Seniors or vets, giving me a better chance at taking C highpoint. Well the plan failed, C-Open was last to start for all the classes.

The camera angle is a bit low, mainly because I still haven't learned to look ahead as far as I should be. I'll try to put together a more interesting version throughout the week.

Wow you are on a mission, even caught the girl this time. I would have pussied out on that icy course from hell. Nice!!

I thought I saw your bike on c's list. There are plated 300's that pop up every now and then but you gotta act fast as the move pretty quick. If I were you I'd be on the look out for a 500. From all the reviews the 500 is way better than the 530.

500 would be nice, but I don't think I can find a used one around here. I'm on the lookout....

Awesome video Thad. You had a real battle going on and finally gottem'! That's when racing is wicked fun! Good job.

Me too

Question for normal Pachaug Trail people:

Are there other entrances into the trails rather than going in the main entrance the CT DEP website gives? I am coming from Ashaway, RI and would prefer something a little further South East.

Thanks in advance!

Us abnormal Pachaug trail people take offense to this

Yeah, WTH

You can meet up with the loop anywhere it comes to a road, which is a lot.

Wouldn't it be an intersection?

Could be just a junction...

what's the function of a junction?

from where you are, check out Beach Pond area, and enter from RT165.

You must be the normal pachaug guy.
