Rockingham Recreation Trail ATV cruise pt 2
What a BEAUTIFUL Summer Sunday morning for an ATV cruise!
Wow, guys, cruisin' down thee ol' Worcester, Nashua & Rochester Railroad is super fun, nostalgic and very relaxing, especially on such a perfect morning. Excellent for the Soul!!
This abandoned rail line would ultimately become part of the Boston & Maine Railroad, aka "The Mighty, Mighty B&M". Railed service on this particular line ceased in 1932, when the Boston & Maine closed to large sections, one from Hudson to Fremont, NH, and the other from Epping to Gonic, NH.
Starting at approximately 10am, we rode for about 2.5 hours from Fremont to Derry and back. There are a few places to stop and relax along the way, and there is great scenery to be had, including wetlands. It brings a sense of calm and balance after a long week. An underrated ride.
If you haven't been out, or are hesitant about riding this particular rail trail, I would recommend checking it out and enjoying it while you can. We never know when what little trails we still have will be snatched away from us!
GET OUT THERE!!! :D
NH Ride The Wilds ATV cruise
We made it! Rose up at 3am to get a head-start on things and made good time to Berlin, NH. Parked at Jericho Outdoors as the Sun was rising. On the bikes approx. 6am and started the longest ATV cruise we have ever done!
This trip was full of all types of ATV trails, except heavy mudding, which is a good thing considering the heat and humidity, and the variety of trails and things to see along the way makes your head spin! The small towns and villages, the campers, trailers, camps and houses set back off a random, lonely dirt road...you can "feel" the energy of it. It made me want live it for a year or something, be an ol' homestead'r there in Stark, or West Milan, or maybe up in Dixville Notch or something. Wow!
I also noticed some of the older folks living along the ATV-shared roads, the dirt roads anyway, won't even bat-an-eye at the sound or site of an ATV cruisin' by. Nope, lol, one older gentleman working outside his garage door didn't even look up from what he was doing when we drove by. At that time I really tried to imagine what he was doing, how long he had lived there, and how life would be if it were me there, sitting outside and working on something or enjoying a hobby.
Let's go for a ride!!
A Trailwarriors Summer weekend
Quite possibly one of the most beautiful weekends ever! Wow!! Every day the weather was gorgeous, hot in the sun, not too humid...just right for some ATV trail rides and a dip in the pool.
We made it the furthest east on the quads that we have been yet. Bridges are holding. Trail is opening up. Summer is good!
More updates coming ASAP, including a trip up North to Ride The Wilds NH, and some more high quality photos and 4K 60fps video of New Hampshire ATV trail riding. Could also be some suspension upgrades coming in the near future. Elka Suspension, maybe?? Hmmm......
Stay tuned...... - #TrailwarriorsLife
Summer Sunday bridge repair!
A perfect Summer Sunday for a little trail clean-up and bridge repair. Chicken 'n ribs, too!
The ATV trail out back hadn't seen us since the winter and it needed some attention. The two bridges were in disrepair, and the trail was grown-in somewhat. It was time to bushwhack. A little while later we were back on it and clearing brush, matting down the foliage, and reaching an ol' favorite spot on a pond just a stones throw from the hut.
Teddy Pup came along for a cruise, too!
And those "Shotgun Shells" were A+++! #BACON

Rockingham County Recreational Rail Trail cruise
Hit up the Rockingham Recreational Rail Trail today with @the.real.sportsman!
What a beautiful evening for an ATV cruise. Thee ol' railbed looks to be in great shape from what we could tell. An excellent ride with fairly smooth trail ridin' all the way through!
BIGups to NH ATV Club for everything they do for these New Hampshire trails. It's simply amazing to still have access and be able to ride a quad in our home county, Rockingham. There is so much over-development around us it's scary!
Several times during the cruise from Fremont, NH to Derry, NH and back to Fremont, I wondered to myself...."who wouldn't want to take a train ride through this beautiful rural countryside, farm lands and wet lands?" Even today, it's such a valuable right-of-way, but somehow its value is over-looked for the hustle and bustle of today's modern technology and Rat Race. Ugh!
What a great night to be out. If you haven't been, we suggest you do...
