UWHARRIE SUCKED... Plain and simple, Rocks isnt the word, 2 of the biggest problems I saw was the bottlenecks that the jeeps caused on all the tough parts, forcing atvs and bikes OFF the trail to go around so we didnt sit there for an hour, a big no-no. And also all the kids riding with their dads on the quad with no helmet on. Alot of these trails were VERY rough, and having a 5 year old on your quad without a helmet on was just plain ignorant.
Parking was very limited, trail maintenace looked as though it was non-existent.
I rate it a 2 on a scale of 10. The Plus parts were the very technical sections that were alot of fun.

You got that right. It is great for Rail buggys and jeeps. Forget about sport quads. Anouther great place to ride is Enoree . It is part of the SC state forest system located near witmire SC. There is about 30-40 miles of groomed trails all directional. Great for wipping through trails not having to worry if someone is coming the other way. There is a camp ground is down the street. You can ride at night as well.

It is about an hour south of Charlotte off of SC RT 72 and SC Rt 66

Bing, almost all the way ther keeping a small portion closed at lawyers area but its about done in this area, it get to the speedway area but that section before lawyers is still shut down. Growing real fast around here. All the places I saw atvs ride are now neighborhoods or stores.

Pairof98s, Anytime you want to go riding let me know. This sat 5 of us are going to Brown Mountain about 1 1/2, 2 hours away was told better than Uwharrie, and as horrible as everyone else says it is, i thought was great, wished for a few more straight aways so i could open up a little, but thats where i broke it in at, and your going to be in for a nice welcome to North Carolina red clay/ mud. Uwharrie is more like, rhymes with, Rock Quarry. I was'nt expecting so much rock and Jeeps, but as slow as the Jeeps go does'nt seem like fun at 2.5 mph. There is some major power lines near my house and Independence (74) that I've rode on and fields but to be respectful, I'll wait till the soybeans are plowed. Seems like theres alot of little areas around to ride on. you'll like the Charlotte Area growing fast.

Warsteiner, I just moved to Charlotte (Pineville) in January. I took a trip to TNT two weeks ago and it was
pretty good. You mentioned the power lines off 74? Any place to park a trailer?

Huge/Warsteiner-

I'm anxious to go riding. It looks like about 56 degrees for Saturday. Anyone interested in TNT? The Vinson and V Force haven't seen NC dirt yet and I've been here more than 3 months!
