If you can't find someone here, try contacting the folks at www.theshuttleconnection.com

I used them for a ride from Kinsman Notch to Franconia Notch and I'm pretty sure the price was less than $10 per person (there were three of us.)

I used Bruce at Hikers Paradise in Gorham. If he is still in business he shuttled hikers anywhere from Lincoln to Rangely, Maine and the price was right. The AMC also offers shuttle service all through the Whites but I don't know the details but information is available at any of their hostels or headquarters. My wife is giong to be hiking at Franconia Notch sometime in the next week or so and she is certainly availabe to offer a ride locally to any hiker. I have never had problems getting rides in the Whites just by asking for them at trail heads, there are far too many hikers in the Whites but they come in handy when you need a ride, just ask.
