I didn't know there were snowmobile trails. We used to play paintball back there in the early 2000s, no one ever bothered us.

Are you talking about the snowmobile trails? Thought it was restricted to them?

Not really this time of year, but spring-summer-fall they do autocross at fort Devens and the kids usually go first with their go carts. Also seems like a good place to network and find out if they also know of any other places. It is timed racing on an old airport strip.

You're in luck! Behind the cemetery off Stafford St. is one cool spot for it. There are trails off Auburn St. as well, and behind the airport.

I'm actually in Leicester, just looking for any place to take her now and then.

What part of Worcester?

Too bad. I’ve had my equipment serviced there for years. Will have to find another local shop.

Avoid. Dunkin imitators. Not good - pretty much exactly like Dunkin (awful donuts, worse coffee).

Impact is the only answer. It’s open 24/7 and is the vibe you are looking for.

There’s one in Whitinsville next to the Dunkin’ Donuts on providence turnpike that seems like a big boy gym

Considering I’ve heard several stories (as well as my own) of them claiming things were beyond repair and that they would “dispose of it for you” only for it to be a minor repair at another shop (or in my case it was running again when they returned it when it hadn’t been before) making it seem weirdly like they were going to flip your stuff on you I can’t say I’m shocked…

Will this sounds like a fun time.

Yup, impact has almost every machine imaginable. The leg room is awesome too.
It’s very crowded and cramped though, the one downside. Things are packed in tight. I wish it had a larger turf area as well. Makes things like lunges/sled pulls/farmer walks hard.

Rocco’s just throws candy and cereal toppings on regular donuts. The Glazy Susan donut quality is outstanding and they do an amazing job integrating flavors

Agree. Bagel Time is a well-loved institution in my heart, but it's more realistic for me to pop into Market 32, and their jalapeno asiago is incredible

Shame too, because it would have been right up their alley for a gym that was "a little rougher."

Nope youre right. My bad lol. No reason to have Hudson envy, Marlborough has a lot going for it as well. I used to live there.

Not to be pedantic, but Lost Shoe is in Marlborough. We’ve got Hudson envy, so have to call out our few bright spots :)

Yeah I used to own a place on Boyd Street Cherry Cherry Valley between 2008 and 2012 my boys would always play behind there and on those trails but there's an actual Leicester snowmobile club they have a Facebook page, meetings and all that stuff I guess they maintain the trails because some of those trails are on private land
