Sxsnewbie, welcome to the #HondaSxS Club. We have a hand full or so of members from that area. Right now they out enjoying the snow. They be in before to long.

As me. I'm from NC. No snow here. :-( and when it does its gone next day.

Anyways. Glad you enjoying your Pioneer. Hope to see you around the community.

Connecticut is a tough area. Live n Union and haven't found anywhere in the state for off road riding. I tow up to New Hampshire, and the P5 is narrow and light enough to be classified as an ATV. Most UTVs aren't permitted on most of the trails in southern NH.

I have to call dep in NH to register? What's the name of the area u ride? I would like to give NH a shot.

I've been to a few of them. Bound Tree and Hopkinton-Everett riding area are both in the Concord area and have ~20 miles of trails. Up north in Berlin, NH is the Jericho Mountain state park which has over 50 miles of trails, as well as access to a trail network that will take you up to the Canadian line. Hundreds of miles of trials up there. All are either state maintained or state funded, so all you need is a NH registration and you ride for free.

Enfield Motor Sports is an agent for the NH Fish and Game department, I registered there. Costs $52 if I remember right. You can find a state trail map and info on all the state sponsored trails HERE. Really wish Connecticut had something like this!

Wow 41.00 in Maine i think

 

[birdman]

I live in berlin and I don't think you will find a better trail system and a town that is so geared to atv's. you can ride on the streets and have access to anything you want.

I would love for the club to have different "chapters" across the country.
so....
If any one in the NE area wants to host a HondaSxS Club Ride come spring/summer/fall just let me know. The club can provide some support in exchange for HondaSxS.com being the "Title Sponsor". But, will need to find a trusting Captain to keep the plan/ride on track.

Thanks.

I like this idea very much!!

 

[TomB985]

I like the idea too. I think we'd have to set something up in New Hampshire though, seems like there's not many trails in the other northeastern states.

 

[Sxsnewbie]

Agree. I did about a half hour of research. And it looks like the Jericho mountain state park riding area fits best. Is UTV friendly up to 65" wide, has access to 100s of miles of riding and camp sites.

[TomB985]

I agree with that. I've been up there twice in the last six months and have been very impressed. I only have a few photos though:





And here's one of my mom's P500 after we were done. This was right next to Jericho Motorsports, and t was three days old at this point. My Polaris is parked in the middle.



Remember the P500 is classified as an ATV under NH law because it's 50" wide and under 1,000 lbs dry. So you can take it anywhere it's legal to take a quad. Here's my favorite place near Concord:







UTVs are off-limits here, but the P5 is good to go. A P7 would not be.

 

[Sxsnewbie]

Looks like a great day of riding. I was anxious for the snow to come,but now I wanna ride NH! Hope to see you out there some day.

 

[sxs2015]
