I use to ride around Lake Acworth, now there is a golf course there. The last time I was home the area around Red Top Mountain is no longer available to ride on. Also, the riding area called "1000 acres" north of Woodstock is no longer woods but houses!

Lived in Kennesaw most of my life. Even went to North Cobb High school.

Good luck trying to find a place. I would think up I575 around Ball Ground or Jasper should have some riding places.

 

Hey robertm, You are right not a whole lot of places to ride in GA until March 20. On that date is when the National Forest will re-open their ORV areas. You have several in your area and some of the best in GA. For now you can go up I-75 to Chatsworth and ride at Windy Gap or I heard of a place off 136 & Hwy 9 called Lost Mountain. If you can travel overnight you can hook up with us and ride Windrock, or Sequatchie Valley outside of Chattanooga.

Tennessee so far has some of the best all day riding available but, generally requires two days to enjoy.

 

Argo, you are right about those places. He needs to look at the GARTRA website since they do most of the trail maintenance in Georgia. Of course, you could just give him Dave's phone number or direct him to Joe and Carla's website. We are going to try to go to Anniston, AL this Saturday to price Ranchers. We'll be in touch.

 

P.S. Can you believe Snowshark grew up in Cobb County? Small world...

 

robertm:
I live in Newnan and ride at Cohutta WMA. Its up hwy 411 from Cartersville. There's 20 miles of trails at the Windy Gap/Tibbs Trail area. Its some great riding. I like it much better than Anniston due to less traffic. Maybe I'll see you there. Just stay on the marked trails. The powers over this area want to close it to 4-wheelers due to the damage idiots due off the marked trails.

 

hey swampfox....you are just right down the road from me. You ever ride anywhere near here(griffin,jonesboro,coweta county etc.)? also have you ever been to culloden poker run?

 

ATVnbabe,

Yeah, grew up in Cobb county, I am sure you know where the big Chicken is, don't you! I really miss the people in the south, they are a little more freindly. Great mexican food & bar-b-que, you don't find that up here in the NorthWest.

Another place to ride might be over in Talledega, I remember going to the NASCAR races & seeing lots of ATV over there.

 

thanks for all the info ill check into the ORV areas when they open.

Snowshark: i live right on the Kennesaw/Acworth line. cobb parkway and ackworth due west, right by North Cobb High. I graduated in '99.


ATVnBABE: you live close? we should ride together sometime, there is a small set of trails behind my subdivision, Calumet Woods (know it). e-mail me if you want directions. good mud, water crossings, medium hills. good for a few hours of riding. Fourwheeler32825@aol.com

Thanks for all the help, keep em' coming!!!

 

I used to live in Kennesaw!

Just thought I'd interject!
