| West Point Tennessee | August 7, 2006 @ 7:48pm | | I rode at a really cool private place called West Point. It is leased from a Timber Company by several clubs in Tn. Mostly by the Memphis Club, but anyone in a club in Tennessee can join. They have about 200 members, costs $50 a year. We could do this if we got BJEC, AHSCS, meaning RVDR, ADR, Razorback Riders, maybe even some MMC (Memphis), and out of state members. There are about 10 guys that drive from Tennessee to Brock twice a month. They would join, they already drive 3 hrs to West Point, Brock is only 4 hrs. We need to look for a lease near the Central part of Ar. Maybe we could find a place near Russellville? West Point is about 12,000 acres and has 100 miles of trail, of varying difficulty. They manage it well, closing overused trail, and making new stuff regularly. It is a great ride area. It has hills that make Brock easy! I tried one 3 times, never made it. The trail guide with us had tried it for 2 years, finally made it. There have only been 3 climb it that they know of. I am going back and doing it on the 520. I think I could have climbed it on the 250 if I had a little lower gearing. |
