hi

looks like you have riden wilborns more than a few times, me, my wife and my 7 year old daughter like to ride when we get a chance i have ben riding since i was 10yrs old started on three wheelers so i am fairly experianced but my wife and daughter are not. i was curious how family orianted the trails are at wilborns and do they have a nice camping area we have a rv and thought it would be nice to camp and ride. we are from madison alabama just outside of huntsville, so its not to far of a drive we are members of natra and ride at westpoint tn which is great but not to good for kids to many people driving very fast and to dangerous for my daughter she will get run over there so she has to ride with me. riden alot of places but havent made it to wilborns yet and have you riden bank head national forest, just curious about it also

thanks
mike

They have plenty of areas to camp. They even have an RV hookup that I have seen people using.

Overall, I would say the park is "intermediate" because any extreme hills can be detoured around. I think your wife and daughter would be perfectly fine with a little experience on hills, ruts, and rocks. Also, there are a lot of people that take it easy at Wilborns so you wouldn't be alone. I'm just usually one of the ones ripping it up [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

thanks for the info about wilborn sounds like a nice place to ride but if you like to rip it up you should try westpoint tennesse just norhteast of florance alabama it has every thing from deep clear creeks, to hills that you should go ahead and get medflight in route. there is over 5000 acres and just cost $50.00 per year per family but i wont let my daughter ride there just a little to wild there are rules but no one seems to follow them. you must join natra to ride but that is covered in the $50.00 best deal i know of in southeast its where me and my buddies ride but i will be taking my family to wilborns, love the wolverine i had one just like it and a few other four wheelers, but we lost them to a house fire on dec 11th and home owners insurance didnot cover them so everyone check your policy they were in the garage just my 2 cents worth

Cool, I will look in to that. Only problem is that I'm in Birmingham and anything over an hour drive gets to be a pain (Wilborn's is an hour north for me).

 

Why are dirtbikes not allowed ? I have a four wheeler but I like to trail ride on my bike also.

 

hi

you should try westpoint tennessee you can ride your dirtbike as fast as you want and climb hills untill you get sick of them. its just north of the alabama line near leoma tennessee but you must join natra which is not big deal $50.00 a year for the whole family best deal i know of for 5000 acres of riding
