Hey, who in Central Missouri, or just in Missouri is on exriders.com?

Just curious if anyone local is on here.

For the record, Deep Water in Clinton Missouri, and Finger Lakes near Columbia are the two hot spots close to me.

I recently moved outside of St. Clair along I44. I go to St. Joes, Finger lakes and Hwy 47 MX in Richwoods, MO. I've only been to a few other private spots, but no other public spots. I will be going to some more places this summer though.

St Joe State Park (Flat River) is in Missouri, southern Missouri i believe, south of ST Louis. ask around, someone with a good sense of direction that has been there could get you there, its a good place to ride

I live in Columbia. so I go to Finger Lakes some. Haven't been to any other public places to ride.
Tell me more about where you ride in Deep Water in Clinton, is it
anything like Finger lakes? How much does it cost to ride?

I've never paid anything to ride there. Its' on state ground near Truman lake. Its a lot of up and downs (hills). Lots of timber to ride through. Its' fun, has some places you can open it up and let er rip too.

Hey Guys,
I have done a little riding at Chadwick and Deepwater, but I haven't rode at Finger Lake or St. Joe. Where are these places at? My quad is is gettin' worked on right now so when she gets done I think that we should go riding somewhere. What do you guys think?

I live in St louis and ride mainly at St Joes State Park and Finger Lakes.

Hope to get out to Chadwick and maybe Deep Water this summer.
Also recently read about Washington County offering ATV permits to ride their gravel roads and logging roads in the Mark Twain Nat Forest.

Can anyone confirm riding areas in Wash County?

Also wondering if anyone rides at Hazel Creek anymore?
Seems to be overpopulated with Jeeps and they dont much care for ATVs form what I've read at www.midwestjeepthing.com

MSL..I was at St. Joe last Sunday to. That was the most people I've ever seen there. We did some trail riding but mostly dragged. I was on the stock looking 99' 465 EX with a older style DMC pipe. My son was on a stock 03' red and black Banshee with paddles.

Hey guys i'm from Ellington, MO and it is about one hour south of farmington and 1 and a half to 1 /4 and hour from St. joe. I'm just getting to were my parents are letting me take my 300ex out and i'm going to there this summer. My brother has been and he said it was awsome. I like to ride here around my house on the park roads and last summer went to a place called sutton's bluff. it has some mean trails and i think all you have to have is a state park sticker. have fun and watch for trees cause they hurt;) !

The 465 is running pretty good Bean. Only rode it once a few weeks ago when it was 70°. Every imaginable quad was there. I can ride in the trees now. I need a longer swingarm to keep the wheels down. Warm weather is coming.

Hey. We're in Wentzville (west of St. Louis), mostly ride near the house on trails and jumps. Last year we went to Potawatomi Campground to ride (before I got the 400 though) and can't wait to go back. They are supposed to have put in a new MX track and have races this year.

Check it out: missourimotocross (http://www.missourimotocross.com)

Darrell

Ste. Genevieve Moto Park has a MX and TT track just south of St. Louis. You can ride there for $10 per day. I've been thinking about checking it out. Here's the web site:

I LIVE IN PERRYVILLE, MO. WE GO TO ST JOE ALOT. IT'S A FUN PLACE TO RIDE, IT SUCKS WHEN IT'S DUSTY THOUGH. IT'S BEST TO GO AFTER A GOOD RAIN.

Potawatomi has a MX practice track and race track, not sure if they have finalized race dates. I have also heard there is a good MX track in Hawk Point that is pretty "quad friendly". I'll see if I can find the website info about the Hawk Point races.

there are tracks at columbia, kahoka, hawk point, moberly, hamilton, thayer, st clair, buffalo, merwin, and i am sure there is more if you look around enough.


the track at columbia (finger lakes) is not very good unless it is prepped for a race.

Thats the most i have ever seen there and i have been going there to ride for about 16 years. I was on a 2001 400 EX with Pro Circuit graphics and my son was on a orange and silver blaster.

I think i remember the banshee out there with a youngun on it:)
