Default New to the forum from Tennessee

Stumbled across this forum when researching for the trip my friends and I are planning. We are planning for a ride on the Paiute trail system glad we decided go on this trip from what I have found so far. I was sad to se the 50" rule for some of the trails looks like I am going to leave the rhino in Tennessee. Good thing I have good friends with multiple bikes going on this venture with me.

Can any one point me in the right direction to find exactly which trails have this 50" restriction? Come on and help out a newb I am tired of the search button.

Welcome to the forums. Try posting this message in the Places to ride section. You are more likely to get more info there. I know there are several guys familiar with the Paiute system.

Thumbs up Paiute Trail

Welcome, I am new a couple months back. My family and I have ridden in Tennesee at Coal Creek twice. You are blessed to be in TN wild place to ride, fewer rules, had a great time. We are from RI. Been to the Paiute trail 3 years ago. I am not aware of a list of where 60's can and cannot go. They have these gates to keep live stock in, you ride up and down a metal gate with side railings and if you are to wide you are not getting through. They have a book you can buy about the system, I would recommend it. There map is very thourough too. The topo and terrain is nothing like out here. The whole system is very ATV friendly, it is there economy out there. We stayed at Lizzys and Charlies campground in Marysvale, UT. There are several big towns to start from. You can visit some small towns but they do not have much such as gas and food. I understand you can ride the main trail for 24 hours straight to ride just the main trail, be prepared for different weather too. We went in august and it was over 100 in the valleys and 70 in the mtns, we hit a lighting storm and flash floods be prepared for safety, food, water and scenery you will never forget. Oh make sure your carb is set for high altitude. I could go on and on!
