How about everyone start posting their favorite places to ride in Ohio, and if you know, also post directions and any fees. I'll start with really the only one that I know well:

Elson St Riding Park Waynesburg,Ohio:
About 30 acres of trail riding. Some good mud areas and some wicked hills. $10 per day fee. From Interstate 77 take Rt30 east, to Rt43 south, about 10 miles look on right for small sign near the gound for Elson St (or just look for the road sign), turn right on Elson St and it deadends into park.

wayne national forest & perry state forest in southern ohio are some sweet places to ride if you like trails. you have to have a plate or sticker on your bike though. you can get them at the license bureau they dont cost that much. i am not sure the exact directions on how to get there though.

Truckpaul, i know you are asking for Oh, but Haspin Acres is just a little west in a town called Laurel, In. you can visit www.motocrosspark.com. I am thinking of trying a trip to Wayne Nat'l forest, does anyone have a website for this area, or some good directions?

Sparks-- where are you coming from? I ride in the Wayne(S.E. OH.) allmost every weekend. I live in the Columbus area. 90 min. s.e. of Columbus. Take route 33 S.E. to Logan OH., just below Logan the 4 lane turns into 2 lane, 1/4 mile after that, you will see a sign "WAYNE NAT'L. FOREST-- Dorr Run trail heads", follow the signs. (90 miles of trails in this area). Very diverse terrain. Lots of hills and mud. When I am not in the Wayne, I am at the Hatfield McCoy Trails in s.w. WVa.

sparx-- the trails are pretty clean, clear. Not like Big Rock, with a bunch of shale, etc.
WNF, Hanging Rock Trailhead (near Ironton, OH)might be closer for you. Trails are pretty nice, but just not as much. 35 miles, compared to 90 miles.
Yes, I see a lot of 400's. I ride with three, or four of 'em.

thanx trx450, i will have to check out the Wayne.

motox, i live just outside of Hamilton towards Oxford,(about 10 minutes from MU). I saw your post on Haspin, was this from a reliable source? It would suck if Haspin was to close down, maybe there has been some liability issues.

as far as the fuel getting into the oil i have not noticed this but will keep an eye out.
