never saw a single cop. There are so many quads there the cops couldn't jail em all. Check out tower city trail riders for legal riding in this region.

I love ur threads lol keep those pics comin!

The hills at Tower City are decent. If you want real hillclimbs and free riding you should consider riding in Freeland, PA "pocanoe area". There is about 10x more trails then TC and it's alot less rocky in my opinion. If you're interested let me know. I'll probably be riding there this weekend. Nice pictures bye the way!

I appreciate the offer, but the poconos area is a tad bit farther for me to drive. Tower city area is only 2.5 hrs from my place in virginia.

[Schooled 416]

Wow dude that is cool, next time you guys go up there send me a PM, I just got my new 4 wheeler a few weeks ago. I also have to get myself a trailer. Im afraid to haul it in the back of my truck because it isnt big enough. Ive been stuck to the trails around here and they are starting to bore me. I live near Chase in maryland.

[Mxjunkie]

Hows that 700 do? your the first person I've seen with one.

[4punksdad]

we might be going next weekend............the 700 raptor has tons of power.

forgive the next picture. I am testing a new camera.

[4punksdad]

cool........looks like I will have better pictures from now on. :D

I had a hard time letting go of my old camera.:p

[Motocox]

Joe, I wish you had called me sooner, because I would of gone. You gotta give me a little more advanced notice.
Looks like you had a good time.

[MR.BIG]

I've been to tower city and it is way to rocky for me. Nice pics

[brandon34r]

Derno.........we have plans to head up there again. Maybe as soon as this weekend. Wanna go?

[Mobile Dyno]

I'm in Warrenton, VA. I'm about 45mins from you. Any good places to ride up there?

I can be in warrenton in 25 minutes from my place.

Yeah, we have tons of trails & a track in my front yard. The neighbors love me. :D

[Mobile Dyno]

Thats Awesome!! Nice place. Maybe when I get my project 440ex done we could hook up and ride? Do you ever go to Hatfield and McCoy Trails in WV?

[Motocox]

I'm in Warrenton also. And have been to H/M many times.

[Mobile Dyno]

Where do you ride? We have a bunch of trails down were I live. I am soon building a track. We go to H&M twice a year.

[Motocox]

Where in Warrenton are you? I live on Meetze rd and have heard rumors of trails in the area, but I haven't really found any of them yet.

[4punksdad]

hatfield mccoy is fun to do once a year. But its too damn far to drive. Hard to justify the trip when I have these trails here.

[jakes699]

did he clear the water or land in it?? looks like hes gonna make a big splash ..lol

If you look closely you can see where I landed in the water on the prior attempt. Two real muddy spots near the waters edge. Yeah, it made a big splash.

[Donkey1]

Dirt give me a call!!!

[chunky]

ive been to all those hills you were on...the buses in the backround of that last pic are probably the buses i ride to school....in the summer i would ride from my house to those trails and coal holes and hill climbs daily...i love it out here

[crday98]

if you are ever back in the area, there are some monster hillclimbs in ashland that make the ones in tower city look like speed bumps. it is only a few more miles up I-81. send me a pm if you are interested.;)

[chad502ex]

TC is good place to ride, but I agree with Kilabanshee- our group prefers to haul a bit more north for much better riding experience. TC is still awesome!!

great pictures, thanks for sharing.

[4punksdad]

those pics are actually from shamokin........I just fail to recognize each town & make a general reference to tower city as the location. We are planning on returning within the next few weeks. I will post on this thread when we have a travel plan.

[brandon34r]

Keep your eyes open for us. I must have the only raptor in the world with a 6 pack rack! I am not hard to spot.

[brandon34r]

yeah and im usually the one with the red 450 rolling down the hills.....hahaha:grr:

[rpyfz450]

Does anybody have any GPS waypoints or "tracks" they could share with me? I'd like to load them into my Garmin GPS before the next time I go there. Thanks!!!
