I'm a new rider out of Billerica, MA. We're blessed with some great backroads that lead out to NH/VT and Central/Western MA from here. I stumbled on this route by riding around 225 near home, up to Littleton, and then banking a right onto 119 by the IBM Building. I took 119 all the way to Brattleboro. Great ride, not many lights, lots of spots to take a break, and great scenery too.

Top points: A) Lots of great country roads, all one lane, awesome for any level of rider. Plenty of stops along the way for a bite to eat, a drink, gas ups, etc. Heart of New England. B) Once you get to Ashburnham, you'll roll through some twisties in the state forest with some narrow roads. C) Once you're about to cross into NH, you'll start to get a view of some small mountains and lakes. D) In NH, speed limit picks up on some straightaways.

Note: the route shown on the map (Quabbin Loop) does not match the description (Route 119). My comments refer to Route 119 as listed in the description.

East of Groton, there is more traffic, interchanges and lights. Best to travel West from Groton. Road condition in some areas is beginning to deteriorate - uneven pavement, cracks and rubberized patch - but in general, this is still a very good motorcycle route. Follow the signs, as the Route takes a few turns along the way. A good mix of curves and straights, and there are enough towns along the way, so services are readily available. This is a very good route to take to get to further touring in VT.

The stretch of RT78 between Winchester and Orange has some of the best curves in the area.
