Oliver Springs, TN - When people
decide to gather to enjoy a specific event, it usually
means good times simply because everyone is sharing
a very common interest. When you combine good friends,
good times, the great outdoors and our beloved off
roading you tend to have a weekend that creates
memories that last forever. Now add in a riding
area that is minutes from every modern convenience
you would want, spectacular views of the Tennessee
countryside and trails that are good enough to give
you a variety of riding challenges and you have
an event that is out of this world!
The Coal Creek Spring Jamboree was held this
year near the end of April at the Coal Creek O.H.V
area located just outside Oak Ridge, TN. Located
on 72,000 acres and featuring 300 miles of trails,
one need not worry about finding some new trail
to explore.

Coal Creek Spring Jamboree is held
at the Coal Creek OHV riding area in Oliver
Springs, TN & features over 300 miles
of breath taking ATV & SxS Riding Trails |
The trails themselves are well maintained, marked,
and would lend themselves to riding enthusiasts
from around the country as the event kicked off.
With onsite cabins filled to capacity, the RV
hook up and primitive camping areas quickly became
a sea of ATV's and SxS's as people found their
way from all over.

There
were many vendors on hand at the 2012 Coal
Creek ATV & SxS Spring Jamboree |
The chat amongst off roading fans was always
upbeat and friendly and conversations ran the
gamut of topics from riding gear to the event
itself. As the vendor area opened, dialogue was
robust as those wanting a new or needed item quickly
got advice and tips from the vendors and from
those who had a particular opinion on everything
from tires to insurance!

There
was many ATV & SxS events held at this
years Coal Creek Jamboree including ATV
& SxS drag racing |
The huge variety of lifestyles combined to allow
exploits of trips past to be brought back as memories
were shared to friends at every opportunity. I
recall listening to stories of fishing adventures
in Alaska while we were taking in the scenery
from one of the many lookouts that are just stellar
for those wanting to soak up what Coal Creek has
to offer.
