Brushy is awesome if you want to plan a day trip. Its not to bad of a drive from Winston. Maybe an hour.

I went to these trails 2 weeks ago for the first time and it really surprised me with the amount of trails. The trails are fairly easy riding (mainly right of ways and easements). The coolest thing is riding though culverts under I40 and 311. I have been told that a lot of people ride on Sunday.

Great. Where did you park your vehicle? I am planning to go on Sunday. If you are coming, I can meet you at a place and we can ride together. Let me know.

I parked at my buddy's house and rode in. He lives in a neighborhood that backs up to one of the easements. We are planning on going next Saturday the 13th.

We can meet you at the wilco not sure about parking tho. The area around the wilco can be sketchy. We are trying to get an early start there are many miles i havent been on yet.

What kind of fourwheeler do you ride?

I ride a Honda Rancher 420 ES 2WD. Yeah that area is sketchy and there is a real threat for break in or trailer theft for parked vehicle. Did you search any other parking area nearby?
Let me know the time and I will be there.

Looks like you can park on ridgewood court. Probably would be safer than on 109. I will ask my friend if he knows any spots you could leave your vehicle. I will try to get a time for you nailed down as well. I know last time we were out there for four hours and got to see just a fraction of the trails.

I have an 05 400ex and a 03 recon es. I will probably bring the 400 this weekend since i brought the recon last time. My buddy rides a 800 sportsman so i know he can pull us out if we get stuck.

I have uploaded a couple of videos from our ride on youtube, you can search my user name and watch them if you like. I will be uploading more when i get time.

Hi Hawgghead,
Could you ask your friend about parking my car? I went to Ridge Wood court to check. I think they have blocked the entrance to the trail (beneath the power line)with some railing. if I park at the dead end, I did not see an entrance for the trail. Could you let me know.
