A couple of search/rescues were needed in the Mondanock region yesterday, including:
"Two young men had been operating trailbikes on a hiking trail where OHRVs are not permitted. One of the riders experienced a mechanical failure on the Pisgah Ridge Trail near the summit of Pisgah Mountain. While attempting to fix the mechanical problem, the young man sustained a serious hand injury. The individuals had no lights on their machines, no flashlights, and no warm clothes or technical gear to survive in the freezing temperatures."

Sounds about right. Riding something you don't know how to fix, in an area closed to ohrv, and ill equipped.
Sums up cheshire county well.
