Hey FairHavenRes, could the New Haven Register use your photo? We are writing a story about the illegal dirt bike and ATV riders in the New Haven area.
Also, New Haven, Branford, West Haven, North Haven, North Branford, and Hamden police departments are announcing a joint initiative to curb illegal riding. Press conference is tomorrow (May 22) afternoon.
