Where is that lot located in the dam trails? I’m in Trumbull and I’ve never been on any trails. All we have are streets down here. Also how much is it to register a bike?
As soon as you cross the top of the thomaston dam off Hill Rd Go to the end and go through the gate. Registration is not expensive it’s the idea of paying the taxes if you bought it used. This year was a hard year to justify registration and taxes if you only use it for the thomaston dam dir to the number of times it has been closed to riders due to flooding. But on a normal year it’s a great legal place to ride. When it is open, there is usually someone from the army corps of engineers checking registration.
@@billg3903 Thanks super new to Forrest riding and trying to find good spots it’s been tough because I’m a solo rider and no one has interest around me.
Are there any gpx files for routes? I'm looking to get there for the first time & I'm a solo rider. So I want to have an idea of the trail before I get there.
I believe there is a map at the parking lot. I don’t know of any fils for the gps. But in this day and age I’m sure there is. I could try to make one actually. If you haven’t already, go on thomaston dam riders on Facebook. Lots of people In group and possibly someone that has the trails recorded.
Merry Christmas!!!! We ride again soon ! 😎🤘🤘🤘🤘
