New bash/bmx spot - 06-15-2005, 03:18 AM

My buddy mentioned it to me. I believe its up north. Take Nerge west til it ends and there is a bmx track in the woods. Anyone hear of this? I'll have to find out more.

Nerge west.. that ends around roselle road and becomes a neighborhood. There used to be some BMX jumps there that were visible from the elgin Ohare but the residents of that neighborhood leveled them and put up no tresspassing signs a couple years ago. I've not checked that out since then. I can cruise by there tomorow and see if there is anyhitng else buit up.

Welcome back Six... We were a little worried. Last time we had heard from you was around the time your Uncle was having med problems. Glad to hear that wasn't the cause of your absence.

looks like a track to me!

We have to all meet there one time and see if we should claim it as our new bash spot.

Looks like we can make a little track out of what's already there. Kinda like Berwyn but bigger

From the looks of it, you'd have to get over the chain link fence then drive through alot of very tall grass, then over the retaining wall before you got on the highway.

Yeah your'e right, the chainlink fence keeps you from getting out onto the grass to go up to the expressway, and that retaining wall is like 12' tall.

You access it off of Roselle Rd. and Nerge. At that intersection take Nerge west (it's actually Pratt Blvd.) and follow it down untill just before it makes a hard right (1/4 mile maybe). There are three or four trails leading in(only about 10-15ft. of the road) I was standing just inside the second to last trail when I took those pics.

cruised by there today. That is the same spot that a couple years ago was leveled and no tresspassing signs put up. It used to be 5x the size of whats there now. cool part is those jumps are 5 mins from my house and drive one more exit farther west down the elgin ohare and you would be at the BISCO lot I run the landmax at on the weekends.

Doh.. wish I would have seen your post earlier. I went to BISCO last evening (sat) actaully ran into another guy that was driving around looking for a lot to run his 1/10 nitro Yokomo. Pretty cool guy.
