New to Conn...the Plainsfield/brooklyn/Danielson area...anyone familiar with where to ride near here? Any helpful info appreciated.

You aren't too far from Mansfield Hollow or the Schoolhouse Brook Trails located in Mansfield, CT

Check out this link for more info on CT trails near you or not so near to you: http://www.bikerag.com/bike_trail_maps_text_CT.htm

Directions, topo maps, ride recaps, reviews, photos etc. etc.

A good resource to bookmark.

Have fun on the trails!

You're pretty close to Arcadia in Rhode Island as well. Excellent riding... Let me know when you're going, maybe we could meet up.

Then there is Pachaug SF which legend has it can be connected to the big A.

I've done that connecting ride before. If I remember correctly Pachaug wasn't nearly as good as Arcadia.

You could also try Case Mt, its a great place to ride, though can get crowded to a degree.

Two others to check out: Shenipsit Forest in Ellington and Bigelow Hollow in Union. Both would be a bit of a drive, but worth it. I ride Shenipsit A LOT. Let me know if you'd like a tour.
