Default CT Offroad Spots

Hey all,

Just wondering where you guys go offroading at.....I live in Wallingford, just north of New Haven and south of Hartford. The only decent place I've found to ride at is the Portland Fairgrounds. Lets start a list here of offroading spots in CT......just got new tires, want to try 'em out

rtmorrisjr, no the Fairgrounds are not legal to ride at, but the cops never seem to enforce it. It has some nice trails and ruts, especially the day after a good rainstorm. You can tell people are back there all the time, I've seen plenty of trucks, quads, and bikes on the trails when I go down. Where are the places you go? I don't really care if it's legal or not, just tell me how well the cops enforce it

I'm in eastern CT also. From what I understand (friend is a cop), the cops out here a busy enough with "real" crimes that they aren't going to bother folks 4-wheelin' - unless somebody complains. The key is to be discreet. Don't destroy stuff, don't get really loud, don't do it late at night (after dinner is no good - most people want to wind down after dinner and they don't want to listen to trucks and loud exhaust 4-wheelin).
