When you're on Rt 140, and you cross Route 107 in Gilmanton, go for about a mile (maybe a little less than that) - and take a LEFT onto Allen Mills Road. This will take you onto Route 106 in Loudon (and you'd take another LEFT onto Rt 106 to continue on to Concord). This will shave about 6 miles off your trip.
I do not recommend Route 140 in the winter - frost heaves are BAD - and I don't recommend Allen Mills Rd in bad weather - it's narrow and hilly and always plowed.

When I take 140, I turn left at GIW onto Stage Road, which takes me to 107 about 1/4 mile from 129.
I usually go 28-Chichester Main Street-9-393.
My land speed record is 37 minutes (2am, medical emergency, fast car). The worst ever snowstorm time was 2 hours 43 minutes. Average day in, day out tome to North Main St-393 intersection is 50 minutes.
