rausch creek, jack frost, and tower city are the closest LEGAL places to ride.

Well its really all coal silt and coal mines its awesome riding alot like tower city. Soon as the weather gets alittle better like sometime in the spring ill be heading up almost every weekend. They have some huge *** jumps up there if you into that stuff and small ones for the intermidiate and beginer riders.

Very rare I go to Jack Frost, but I find Rausch Creek and Tower City to a great place to ride.:cool:

Every now and then, there is a group ride from Exriders.com that goes to Tower City. Keep checking "Where to ride" section.:cool:

I think freeland is actuly better. One thing its free Its closer to people on eastern pa, and its legal to ride there. I love the place great hillclimbs and alot of nice jumps and trail riding.

I have been to Freeland and there was only a small little track w/ jumps, We had some young buck showing us around. He was a local. It was a cool place to ride, I would go back if I knew where there were more jumps. I just got in on a mountain house, on Lake Harmony, do you know of any places that are closer than Freeland?

Nah freelend is pretty much the best place to ride around the area. Ahhhhhh man you think there is small jumps i bet you 20 bucks you wont hit this double up there it must be like 70 foot its huge. Iam gonna try the 30 footer when i get my works shocks soo that shouldnot be all that bad. Avalon pm me and tell me who the local might be if you remember. I know almost every rider up there, You were most likely in the arena which there are some decent size jumps "alot of new ones found" But we go to a place about a 20-25 minute ride from there and the jumps are insane. I think ive only see one quad hit the big double which was a naugsty sick banshee with axis and alot of other mods. You really need alot of bottom end to hit the jump because ide say the run way is only a good 70 foot or soo but you'll have to check it out for yourself. If you want i can pm you my number and you can call me sometime, Or the other way i can call you to give you more information.

300EXer777,
By your first description to where you lived i thought myself you were pretty close to me. it turns out you are pretty close. I am in East Greenville. I don't think i pasted any other 300ex's when I was snow riding.. Were you riding at all.

Whats your name and age, maybe I know you ?? We'll have to hook up some time. I have a good friend I ride with, we usually make the trips together.. a third would be cool.

Talk to you later..
J

yo killer, the kid was riding a 400ex, his boy was on a Vfoce. I was at a little track that had 6jumps on it. it was by a big open field.I jumped a 30 footer, the take off was real shady. The other jumps were nice, but the take offs looked like they were for dirt bikes. Im gonna give you a shout next time I go to Lake Harmony. Maybe youll be available to ride at Freeland.

That name sounds very fermilar. I got to souderton we should meet up sometime or you can follow behind me next time i got to freeland ur only about 15-20 minutes away. Yup iam pretty sure where talking about the same track. The big one was deffinatly for bikes but ive seen quads clear it. Aight give me a hollar when ur in the area.

I went to check out Blue Diamond about a month ago. It looked like it had a great MX track, but the quad "riding area "was beat. I didnt ride it but there was a big area for quads. It had a couple of tables and thats all I saw. One of the staff guys said they were building a quad expert track for the spring of this year.

Hey,I'm from Jersey the only spot I've been out to in PA is Paragon. Thats a cool place to ride but really rocky. I'd like to try Jack Frost or Tower City. Anyone know of anyplaces that are legal but don't cost anything to ride on?
