Going out west

[rainman]

Me and a few friends are planning a trip out west to ride ATV's. We would like a place that we can park in one area and ride for a few days on a trail and camp out on the trial. The trail would need to go close to a ATV friendly town everyday so we could restock on gas and stuff. Anybody have any ideas on a place like this.

Thanks

Taylor Park, Co. It is one of the most beautiful areas of Colorado. There is a very large lake across from the campgrounds. There is a general store that sells gas. 100's of miles of riding.

If anyone ever decides to Colorado let me know!!!!

Colorado is for sure one of those places you HAVE to visit. The rockies are amazing and there is some awesome riding out here! That would be sweet if we could get a big group of Quadcrazies out here to ride! C'mon everyone, who's in? June or July would be perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stoopidbot, I have been looking into riding areas but haven't been able to find much whats it like over there?? I am guessing it beats Fl. Is there anything in the immediate area of Co Springs?

Right now I am in Fl in the Army I have a little over a year left, looking for a good place to settle married with 3 kids and we all love the outdoors so I figure what better place lol. What about mx or xc racing is there a specific series or anything (haven't been able to find much on that one either) Florida has there series is there something similar in Colorado?

[robdcol]

There is some real good ridin in California. Ocotillo Wells(Borego springs)= It has some insane varieties of riding. Or go further for glamis(Dunes).

Ocotillo Wells: California Vehicular Recreation Area - DesertUSA

Or Glamy baby....

Go West...:drivingc:

Wife doesn't want to go to Cali I tried

As for MX tracks they are EVERYWHERE! There are mx series around here that travel the different tracks in Co. There is no XC racing out here, unfortunately.

There are Hare Scrambles.

[robdcol]

really that's awesome, to bad for xc that's the one I was hoping to start with.

You would think with the vast trail systems we have here someone would hold an event or 2... I race east of Denver in Deer Trail. They have everything from a short course that is a 1 mile loop, all fast turns and one nice 5th gear rolling jump. They also hold 100+ mile races, those are a lot of fun.
