I was wondering what is the best riding area that you guys have that is closest to des moines Iowa and what types of riding is it? Would like to try an out of state ride. Thanks!

 

Fingers Lake in Missouri would be a lot closer to ya.

 

I would recommend checking out Black River Falls and Clark County in Wisconsin.. You wont' be dissapointed

 

Not many places to ride in the southern part of the state.Elm creek would probably be the closest.Try the mn dnr website, they list the locations, and you can request maps too.

 

Elm Creek would get old real fast. If your looking for something in Southern MN, I would look into either the Tri-County Pit or Bauer's Pit. More fun than Elm Creek and more area to ride. Bauer's Pit is privately owned and open to anything as long as the old guy is still kickin'.

 

could some body tell me where the bauer pit is , i know where the tri county pit is ,just looking for more fun places to ride .

 

How strict is Minnesota on the spark arrestor/decible laws? I want to go to Mn. to ride, but my pipe will not accept a spark arrestor. Will I have problems? Thanks.

 

I would guess that if you stuck with private property, you wouldn't have much trouble. Being from Iowa, there are a couple areas in Southern MN that you should be ok to ride. One being Bauer's Pit that is mentioned quite often in this forum.

 

you may want to check the Minnesota DNR website for the answer to your question.
