I went to the badlands this past weekend with a few friends, it was a blast. We rode for a whole day and didn't see everything, next time were going to stay in a hotel and ride the whole weekend. I have both a 450r and a 4x4 and had more fun on a sport quad mostly because of the crazy hills that a 4x4 couldnt touch. Has anyone else been there??

I went there a few years ago. Nice place. If it was closer I would ride there often. We planned on staying all weekend but left early the 2nd day.

Not a bad place to ride. I live about 25 mins from there. I have a yearly membership there and take my boy there to ride. Kids under 6 ride for free, good deal!

Stopped by there two years ago after the World 100 at Eldora Speedway. Had a great time, hardly anyone was there too (Monday). Loved the tubes and the hillclimbs...they also have a campground right by it if you have a camper.

Its a little over an hr from me. Its a nice place, Ive rode there many times. I have the whole place pretty much mapped out in my head. I can ride the whole park in a day. Its only ~750 acres

Good place to ride. Wish it was real sand tho. Very few parts are actual sand, most is pee gravel type rocks, but yea its really fun the first few times.

Then once you get to know it like balas said... You can ride it all in a day.

There was a IXCR/MWXC race there this weekend i went to.

Its probably one of the best places to ride in Indiana i would say in my opinion.

I could ride it all in one day if I tried, but we stop a lot and and see who will hit the steep hills and who's scared. I like the "sand" because its a dry place to ride even if the rest is wet. Also the rock hill is a fun challenge to go up

How far is the place from Jasper? I get out there a couple of times a year to visit my cabinet supplier. Are there any rentals near by?

We ride there about every other weekend. Broke my arm there back in November but will be hitting it again hopefully in the next month or so. Great place to ride with great people owning it. We've been going there for about 7 years or so now. Lot of fun :)

May I ask how you broke your leg? Was it a hill? Lol

Rode there today with my boy. Rode my pit bike while he was on his DRR50. Had a great time. Good place for kids to ride if you know where to go.
