Best Places...

[MX_superfly]

I thought i would start this thread off by askin everyone what there favorite freeride place they've been too is... I havent really gone that far from where i live so the best place ive been to is a local ridin area called the claypits out here in a little town called Topock...

[realslick]

only place i've really been that people would know about is the little sahara sand dunes in oklahoma. i liked it... but it didn't like me

[pipeline44]

The badlands in Attica, Indiana. Its no cainville, but can be better than ridin a track. It is a retired gravel pit that still has tons of sand. a few hundred acre dune area, and a bunch of woods.

[mulishatroop99]

Mine WAS in Beaumont but its now closed for good.It also WAS Rubidoux(These 2 places are in California and aren't to far) but now cops are showing up every weekend and giving $150 tickets.Cops are getting on my nerves.

[NoFear_499]

Cainville for me, but for a less well known place, the cresent dunes outside of tonopah nevada

[KTM-KID]

now what about Ocotillo Wells?? wear in CA is it and what are the laws??

[Arker]

ocotillo wells is an awesome place, and it's very very large. a few dune like spots, hardpack, sandy, mixed. there are boundaries, but the place is so huge it shouldn't matter. you can look up the rules and regulations online.

ktm-kid: it takes me about 2.5 hours to get to ocotillo from pomona, ca. it takes me about an hour to get to adelanto from pomona, so i'm guessing cutting out a side trip to pomona, it would take you about 3 hours. unless you are a speed demon. ocotillo is just past the salton sea on the border of imperial (i think) and san diego county.

[KTM-KID]

yea i like to take my time with driving so i guess it would be about 3 hrs, I check it out on map quest and see an esitmate;)

[SOCALFMX]

ocotillo is one of my favorites, beaumont was awesome but i dont really like it anymore, the other is in temecula valley

[KTM-KID]

See i really injoy the track but i feel since i like jumping soo much and i have pretty good bike control in the air that i would like natural terrain way better...;) :)

So that is what i want to get into...

Cainville

[crazyj288]

i liked little Sahara but i dint put a paddle tire on beause we only rode for like 3 hours out there.

[MXjunk127]

little sahara for me, I need to get out more. Me as a wee lad.

[AirborneAssault]

I agree with everyone on Caineville and Beaumont and definitely Octillo from the looks of those places they look sick. My personal favorite is a place called 29road in Grand Junction CO its pretty awesome and on a few of the Crusty Videos. Sick natural terrain.

caineville looks sweet

i heard beamount and reche canyon were great spots but are now cop infested

if i could go outwest i'd go to caineville, ocotillo wells and superstition

[SOCALFMX]

^^^ yea beaumont and reche have a lot of cops and too many people found out about them so they are getting pretty bad. but ocotillo and superstition are awesome.

[mulishatroop99]

Anyone got pics of superstition?I have heard about it but never seen any pics.Isn't it by Ocotilla Wells?

[SOCALFMX]

there are some in this thread... http://fmtx.shread.net/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=11215&highlight=superstition ... and someone gives directions on the second page

[mulishatroop99]

Is superstition a legal spot?How far is it from around Riverside?Is there regular dirt there instead os sand?

[SOCALFMX]

yes it is legal. there is mudhills, like ocotillo, and there is sand too. if you have been to ocotillo it is around the same drive time.

[dagsomdestroyer]

here are some photos of superstition.

I like a place outside of Moab Utah, its called white wash sand dunes. its so awsome. some videos have been filmed there.

[st3ve]

castillo ranch look sso ill..im sure theres tons of hills in cali no one knows about, like out in wine country

[mulishatroop99]

Do you have to have a registered bike with a green sticker to ride Superstition because I want to go out there this summer and my bike isn't registered.

[webfmx]

This is not a mystery. Off course the better place to Freeride is Brazil !:)

[CRFjeff182]

ocotilla and beaumizzle are the best places to ride, but beaumont sucks now cuz of cops but ocotillio wells is a sweet place to ride, its just to far

[CRFjeff182]

[Red_Rider271]

I havent really been very far from my house but Blue Hills in St. Johns, Arizona is pretty fun. Theres never any people there either.

[st3ve]
