i dunno where it is that you live but if its kinda close or even far,ya got to check it out....Pittston coal hills baby...home of 'THE 800' the badest hill around!!!!!

[Crazy Diamond]

Where are you in Pittston? I ride around here! I live in Plains and hit the tracks to go everywhere! Been at the "800" alot! Like a mile and a half down the tracks! Also hittin' the hills by the Cross Valley!

Where the hell is "Delano"?

[dunny_mark]

Delano is about 15 miles south from Hazleton-The riding is pretty sick around here- coal hills are freaking huge.

[BansheeBaby]

Im from Baltimore and we used to go riding in coal mines in Pa. Im wondering if its around the same place because we got caught and in trouble for it... we all lovethose coal hills and are dying to fgo back!

Tower City is a real fun place to trail ride, with alot of coal hills too

I don't know the 800? But I always thought the Biggest hills where in Ashland?
Anyways, I've been riding up there for years and try to come up a few times a month? It depends on how many join me and rider skill, But I have a bunch of different loops I run covering anywhere from 60 to 100 Plus miles and ride all that area, Delano, Hazleton, Weatherly, Shandoha, Shamokin, Frackville, Trevorton, Etc. Etc. If any of you guys wanna join me sometime let me know?

Hey Shop, Where are you from? Where is H-Town??? I've been to the 800 alot! Its a half mile from my house!

Maryland, Where is that pic taken? It looks like one of the hills at the 800!!

[MarylandATVcom]

Its was one of the hills in Trevorton, Some of the guys Ive ridden with call it Hill # 1.
But last time I was out that way it was washed out. I don't know all the names you all give them? But There are some other areas I ride and some hills they call AC/DC, The Moon, 500 Hill and one hill in Ashland I think they call mission impossible.

A few hours by trail or you can just hop on the highway and get there in 20/30 minutes. The only people I've seen climb the hills in Ashland where Big Bore Kit quads with 636's, 1000cc Sport Bike Motors Etc Oh and a few CR500s. They all had paddles. I think there are some places to park around the hills and just ride up to them? But I'm not sure, You would have to drive up there and check it out. What make Ashland more of a challenge is there are a lot of trees on the hill.

PS: The Hills are just off Rt 54 and Big Mine Run. Once you drive over there you cant miss them. :eek2:

A friend of mine was up there last Sunday with them and said the 636 took a little tumble down one of the bigger hills.
