I heard there is a place down near kankakee outside st anne or something.
Doublestuffracing.com I think was the site for it.

The place in Ottawa is Buffalo Pit Range. The Cliffs is in Senaca off of Rt. 6.
Also dont forget Joliet MX. Exit 55 at Arsonal Rd. and make a left. Follow the signs.
My fav is BuffaloPit which has a real MX track (unlike Fox Valley)plus more wooded trailes. Joliet MX has a Pro SX with 110ft tables and tripples, doubles, and whoop sections. Always groomed and watered. Plus a Euro styl MX track.
I think you would Ottawa best comming from Fox Valley. Ive never been to the Cliffs so dont have an opinion. LMK when your going and Maybe Ill meet up with you.

looking for a free place to go riding. Maybe trail riding with some guys from here or something.

Michowski, what's your avatar say? too small to read.
And comon, it's $35 a year to go there! is that too much? lol
oh wait you have to pay$25 per day you want to go along with the $35 so I guess it would get pricey after a bit.

hey man, I've been out there riding (Buffalo Rock), but have you ever been to the range? I'm wanting to go shooting, but not sure how they are laid out... just curious if you noticed the range part or not..

the one down by kankakee is in witchert/pembroke area and is cool, all sand lotta trails, dont think there is a track there tho.

Stratcat... I have been to the range also. They throw a hell of a 4th of July party with some nutty pyrotechnics blowing stuff up.
They have 2 hand gun ranges, a high power rifle range, traps, and my fav, the plinking hole. People throw stuff in the hole(garbage can lids, whasher/dryer, GAS CANS lol)and shoot it up with thier fully auto guns. Some of the people scare me when they mount thier 50cal to thier truck wearing full camo at the range.:crazy: I was told if it doesnt explode on impact, its OK. I havent been shooting in about 5 years so this may of changed. Here that site.

im up for some chitown trail riding.
Carpies(JMX) is like 5 miles from my house ive been there but never rode there
place to ride??? - MX_KEVIN - 09-27-2006
Id think you would want to make that in the spring. There is a membership fee and season is almost over. But im up for the other places any time.
place to ride??? - Racin' Ranger1 - 09-27-2006
i wanst sying it needed to be carpies. i like trails with some jumps better than SX anyways
place to ride??? - Michowski - 09-27-2006
Kev wanna go riding sometime then? Im into trail rides and open land. I got my brothers suzuki 400 quad I could use. I prefer just a bash session thats free but I understand some of the really cool places charge a little bit like they do at badlands in indiana.
place to ride??? - Racin' Ranger1 - 09-27-2006
idk anywere thats free besides trespassing (SP?) i got a KLX125 pretty sweet. jumps alright especially my homemade step up type jump
place to ride??? - MX_KEVIN - 09-27-2006
+1 I also dont know anywhere to ride free. Unless you know the land owner and have permission your trespassing. But if you know someone im game.
I would meet you guys at fox valley if planned. I would probably bring the bike. I miss riding it. I also have a KLX110 and the Honda Rancher if another responsable adult with helmet and pickup wanted to go also. I can bring 2 bikes or the 4 wheeler but not both and I want to ride a bike.

WHOA!!! who has fully auto? that's a free trip to Club Fed in IL...
if you want to get together sometime and go shooting, let me know... we can use the backyard or I belong to a range in Pontiac also... saturdays are best at the range, we have our matches on sundays.. but it's open year round...

well I just purchased a quad. Got it for $1,600 shipped. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=300029884171&ih=020&sspagename=STRK%3AMEDW%3AIT
place to ride??? - cemeb4dk - 09-28-2006
the link you show is 3300 bucks
place to ride??? - Michowski - 09-28-2006
the winner backed out and I received a second chance offer for 1,600 shipped. I got a 5 day trail with it once I recieve it. It all goes through ebay also and this guy has perfect feedback so im going to take a chance and do it.
place to ride??? - Racin' Ranger1 - 09-28-2006
