I live near the ottawa area of illinois.I am looking for a place to ride that is not that far away. I am looking for mainly trail riding.

 

Well, i live in Illinois too. I am unaware of the ottawa region i will check though after i write this. I live in clark county. There is a place called mill creek and they have a good amount of trails. the only downside is they havn't been kept up. some of the ruts are about a fooot deep. on my quad that sucks, but after awile i learned where they were at and i stratled them. my grandfather has some land that i usually ride. i am considering a membership at the local mx track. it is 50 bucks a year. i have only had my quad for a little over a month and the weather is getting colder. my personal opinion is that we should not have to change our clocks back i hate loosing daylight.

PS what kind of quad do you own and what mods?

I use to live in Ottawa and there is alot of cool old sand pits there. Most of them are out by Buffalo Rock. If you give Leipolds motorcycles a call they might be able to give you better directions. I now live in s.w. Fl.I do know that they have a camp ground up on a hill towards Buffalo Rock that you can pay to ride at and stay all night.

 

Buffalo range is an awesome place to ride. But, they no longer allow ATV's. My understang is that they were sued a number of times by ATV riders. Bikes are still allowed. I keep a bike so I can ride there.
